Good morning, Green Bay.

As dangerous cold settles over Green Bay today, St. John's Ministries extends shelter hours to help people avoid the elements — staff say more residents are seeking refuge in recent days.

The center works with local groups to ensure those in need have a safe place to stay.

Safe Haven Pet Sanctuary (151 N.

Broadway) in downtown will open its doors as a daytime warming center and overnight shelter amid extreme cold to protect the homeless. The extended hours respond to concerns over frostbite and hypothermia as the cold snap continues.

With dangerously cold weather continuing, residents are advised to protect pipes by keeping basements warm, letting faucets drip, wrapping pipes, and closing off cold drafts.

If water stops flowing or a pipe freezes, use a hairdryer safely and call MWW’s Meter Services Division for help.
