(From the City Mission of Findlay)

Due to impending severe weather, City Mission is ready with a plan to keep our neighbors safe.

-Thursday and Friday, January 22nd and 23rd, 2026

City Mission’s Low Barrier Shelter will be extending its normal hours: 3p.m. to 9a.m.

-Starting Saturday, January 24, 2026 at 3:00 p.m.

City Mission’s Low Barrier Shelter will be open to our unhoused neighbors until further notice.

-Our walk-up food window will remain open during normal serving hours.

To put this cold in perspective:

• January 24 marks the 48th year anniversary of The Great Blizzard of ’78
• The last time Findlay saw wind chill temperatures near -20° was January 19, 1994. 32 years ago!

Extreme cold can be life-threatening. Please help us spread the word and check on anyone who may need warmth and shelter.

No one should face this weather alone.
