The City of Springfield posted the locations on social media Sunday afternoon.
“Community partners are working together to support our displaced neighbors during these dangerously low temperatures. Due to limited capacity at local homeless and warming shelters, the City and County are partnering with organizations to expand resources and provide additional space for those in need during this extreme cold event,” the city said on its Facebook page.
