Warming Center Opens In Edison As Cold Temperatures Hit NJ

EDISON, NJ - Almost all New Jersey counties activated code blue, as temperatures drop across the state.

The Edison Health Department and Office of Emergency Management have designated the Senior Citizen Complex as a warming center for those who need to seek temporary shelter.

The complex is located at 2963 Woodbridge Avenue, Edison. The center opened Thursday evening and will open again Friday through 8 a.m. Sunday morning.

A powerful cold front will sweep completely through the Northeastern U.S. by Friday morning, delivering a glancing shot of arctic air to the region through Saturday, according to the National Weather Service.

Although the cold front is a short-lived blast, conditions will be extremely dangerous, forecasters said.
