Low temps trigger cold weather shelters
Wednesday, December 18, 2019 by Tai Moses
The mercury is dropping, with nighttime temperatures expected to dip into the low 30s, and that means the city’s cold weather shelters have been activated. Single adult men and women may go to the Austin Resource Center for the Homeless by 5:15 p.m to get overnight shelter. Families may report to the Salvation Army on East Eighth Street by 8 p.m. More information is available from the shelter hotline at (512) 305-4233.
