Brutally low temperatures with sub-zero wind chills, have prompted Akron City officials to continue extending the regular operating hours of the Summit Lake Community Center at 380 West Crosier Street, as a warming center for people who need someplace to stay out of the cold. It will be open from 8AM to 7PM, now through Friday.

In addition, the City's Emergency Overnight Shelter operated in partnership with several area non-profits, at 111 East Voris Street, is available for anyone who needs someplace safe and warm to stay between 7PM and 8AM.
