The Village of Forest will have a local warming center should the need arise over the next two days due to the predicted severe weather conditions.

If you lose power and/ or unable to heat your home please contact the Forest Police at 419-273-2552 or the Forest Fire Department at 419-273-2520 to make arrangements for accessing the warming center.

The center will also be available to house stranded motorist in our area.

Should you require temporary stay in the warming center please be prepared to be self supportive as nutritional services, toiletry (including toilet paper), entertainment and bedding will not be offered.

We will have a limited number of cots available and restroom facilities and the facility is equipped with generator back-up and running water.

All stays will be terminated when power is returned and/ or the snow emergency is decreased to a level one in the area.

You will be responsible for your own travel to and from the center with the exception of extreme emergencies.
