BREAKING: Strafford County will open its emergency overnight warming shelter in Dover at 4 p.m. Saturday due to the hazardous wind chill. The opening comes after pressure from community members and #homeless/social service agencies. @FostersDailyDem @StraffordCAP @NHCEH (THREAD)
Strafford County Commissioner George Maglaras, via text:
“Opening the warming shelter today at 4 o’clock through Monday morning at nine given the nature of the wind chill factor out is the driving factor
And after hearing from many of the social service agencies in the county”

Big news for those who have been looking for or calling for assistance. The next two tweets contain two previous stories on the County Farm Road almshouse shelter for background on what’s going on/how it will be structured.
@FostersDailyDem/@seacoastonline will post a story online soon. I am off today, but weekend reporter @kdandurant and other staff members are working and will pursue coverage of the shelter’s opening.
Here are some additional details about the Strafford County emergency cold weather shelter opening today. @FostersDailyDem @seacoastonline #homeless #homelessness #NH
