ORLANDO, Fla. – Cold night shelters in Central Florida are opening their doors again this week as temperatures are expected to drop into the 30s in northern zones for the second consecutive night.
On Tuesday night in Orange County, the Coalition for the Homeless of Central Florida took in any person seeking shelter from the cold, regardless of space availability. The Coalition campus in Orlando is located at 18 North Terry Avenue in downtown Orlando. The shelter said it will not be cold enough in the area Wednesday night to reopen the shelter.
