⚠️¡Ayúdenos a compartir esta información! El Condado de Multnomah abrirá 5 refugios esta noche a las 8 p.m. hasta el mediodía del miércoles, ya que el pronóstico indica temperaturas gélidas y viento. La Presidenta ha extendido el estado de emergencia, por lo que TriMet no rechazará a nadie que no pueda pagar un viaje a un refugio. Visite multco.us/cold para obtener información más reciente.

Los refugios de clima invernal abrirán de 8pm (martes 11 de febrero) hasta por lo menos mediodía el miércoles 12 de febrero:
➡ Cook Plaza (19421 S.E. Stark St., Gresham) — operado por Cultivate Initiatives

➡ SAFES (30 S.W. 2nd Ave.): refugio para personas que se identifican como mujeres
➡ Moore Street Corps (5335 N. Williams Ave.): refugio para personas de todos los géneros

A medida que continuamos viendo temperaturas peligrosamente frías en toda la región, los funcionarios de salud pública instan a las personas a refugiarse dentro de un edificio, ya que la exposición prolongada podría provocar congelación u otras enfermedades relacionadas con el frío.

✅A nadie que busque refugio se le negará la entrada.
✅Todos los sitios darán la bienvenida a las mascotas y serán accesibles para personas con discapacidades.
✅El transporte gratuito a los refugios de clima invernal estará disponible llamando al 2-1-1.
✅Las personas que planean usar TriMet para llegar a un refugio de calentamiento deben consultar las rutas en triment.org y avisar al conductos que se dirigieron a un refugio.

El mapa interactivo también muestra lugares para calentarse durante el día, incluidas las sucursales de la Biblioteca del Condado de Multnomah, que están abiertas en horario normal hoy: link.multco.us/interactive-map

I SAID BRRRR… IT’S COLD IN HERE! ❄️ There must be some safety in your atmosphere!

If you're bringing the heat with a space heater, make sure to keep it 3 feet away from anything that can burn—like blankets, curtains, and furniture. And always plug it directly into the wall, never a power strip.

Stay warm, stay safe, and keep the fire in the dance moves, not your living room!
