February 8, 2019 – The National Weather Service is predicting more SNOW and COLD temperatures in the foothills Saturday and Sunday.
In an effort to collaborate over one of our most vulnerable populations, the City of Nevada City, Sierra Roots, Salvation Army and the County of Nevada have extended their Extreme Weather Shelter Protocol to include Saturday and Sunday nights, February 8th through the morning of Monday February 11th. As already announced, the Extreme Weather Shelters will be open tonight, February 7th, as well.
This is an effort to continue to temporarily shelter homeless citizens in our community. Hours of operation are 4:30 p.m. through 7:30 a.m. the next morning. This will make nine consecutive nights of sheltering by both providers.
