As temperatures in Los Angeles drop into the 30s this week, the county is providing “winter shelter” facilities for homeless people who need to escape the cold.Los Angeles on Tuesday evening with fierce winds of up to 70 miles per hour in the mountains and perhaps a smattering of precipitation. The storm will move out early Wednesday morning, leaving clear but cold weather in its wake, according to the National Weather Service in Oxnard.
The frigid temperatures led Los Angeles County to release a cold weather alert notifying residents that its Winter Shelter Program was open to homeless Angelenos. “Children, the elderly, and people with disabilities or special medical needs are especially vulnerable during cold weather. Extra precaution should be taken to ensure they don’t get too cold when they are outside,” Muntu Davis, the Los Angeles County health officer at the Department of Public Health, said in a statement. “There are places where people can go to stay warm, such as shelters or other public facilities.
The county will also get a little rain this week, with less than a tenth of an inch expected to fall Tuesday morning, mostly across mountainous areas and interior slopes, according to Thompson.
