The Camden County Health Officer has issued a “Code Blue” Severe Weather Advisory for extreme weather conditions.  The Health Department and the Office of Emergency Management have worked with each municipality to ensure they have the proper resources to respond to these severe weather situations as part of their individual Code Blue plans. Each municipality has identified its own location to accommodate those in their community

seeking shelter from the severe weather.  Persons seeking warming center locations should contact their local municipality. Camden County Freeholder Carmen Rodriguez issued a statement asking family and friends to help one another. "During these weather emergencies, we encourage everyone to check on elderly or handicapped relatives and neighbors that live alone," Rodriguez said. "It is important that the most vulnerable among us are not left without heat or electricity."
