Authorities in Washington state say they've found additional remains at the site of a massive, deadly landslide.

Washington State Patrol spokesman Bob Calkins said authorities will release more specific information Wednesday evening.

Previously, authorities said they believed they had found 24 bodies from the slide that swept through a rural area north of Seattle on Saturday.

Dozens of people remain unaccounted for, although that number is expected to go down.
