The Code Blue has been issued with temperatures forecasted to dip below freezing Saturday night into Sunday morning.

Due to expected cold temperatures tonight, Camden County has issued a Code Blue advisory from 6 p.m. Saturday evening through 7 a.m. Sunday morning.

“On Saturday night, we are expecting a mix of sleet and snow with temperatures in the low 20s. In these extreme weather conditions, we need everyone to be sheltered and out of the elements,” Camden County Freeholder Carmen Rodriguez said. “If you must leave the house, please dress yourself and your children in warm clothing, hats and gloves. Also, please remember to check on elderly relatives and neighbors, and bring your pets indoors.”
