The Baltimore Health Department announces these alerts when temperatures are expected to drop to 13 degrees or less, including in wind chills, or when conditions are severe enough to represent dangers of people’s health.
The declaration activates a range of shelter and assistance services for cities and affiliates, including services for the homeless.
Adults, couples and families in need of emergency shelters are encouraged to contact the City of Baltimore Shelter Hotline at 443-984-9540, the department said.
Arctic air could be further south to the south of the United States and cause Appalachians when the storm slowly sails out, according to the NWS Weather Forecast Center at University Park.
