It is the fourth consecutive night Cherry Hill and the remainder of Camden County will be under a Code Blue advisory or emergency
For the fourth straight night, a Code Blue Advisory has been issued in Camden County.
The Camden County Health Officer has issued a Code Blue advisory effective from 6 p.m. Thursday evening through 6 a.m. on Friday morning.
“Overnight temperatures are expected to be in the low 20s with winds making it feel even colder…In these extreme weather conditions, we need everyone to be sheltered and out of the elements,” Camden County Freeholder Carmen Rodriguez said. “If you must leave the house, please dress yourself and your children in warm clothing, hats and gloves. Also, please remember to check on elderly relatives and neighbors, and bring your pets indoors.”
When a Code Blue Advisory is declared, municipalities with homeless populations, situational homeless or transient populations are expected to activate their Code Blue response plan to accommodate their immediate needs.
Anyone seeking shelter in a warming center should contact their local municipality. Additional resources are available by calling the Camden County Department of Health and Human Services at (800) 999–9045, or by visiting www.camdencounty.com.
