'Code Blue' Issued For Areas Of South Jersey: See Details

Resources and warming centers are available for those in need.

Multiple regions of South Jersey, like much of the state, will be under a "Code Blue" from Monday until Thursday, with temperatures that are estimated to hover around 30 degrees.

When temperatures fall below freezing and weather could harm unsheltered individuals, a group of agencies across the state activate resources within their communities.

Under a "Code Blue," county offices of emergency management and municipalities are able to organize shelter and warming sites for residents and those who are homeless.
