Forecasts predict dropping temperatures arriving early next week, with potential precipitation expected by Monday evening. Road conditions could deteriorate, becoming hazardous from Monday evening through Wednesday. The City of Houston will open 10 warming centers across the city to provide shelter and relief to those in need. The warming centers will remain open 24/7 until midday Thursday, January 23 (subject to change). If someone needs a ride to a warming center, they can call 3-1-1 and request a Z-Trip that will take them to any open warming center. Follow Houston OEM for updates.

Saturday, December 21 is National Homeless Persons' Memorial Day. The day is typically commemorated on the longest night of the year, the winter solstice. It honors and remembers those who tragically lost their lives while living on the streets. HCD would like to take a moment to honor those who are remembered by loved ones and friends.
