Hey everyone! How did it go on your #SnowDay? Did you get to pad around in your jammies until noon, drink your weight in hot cocoa and get kicked off Capitol Hill for sledding in a menacing way?
Yeah, us either. But some of you guys did, and you shared your photos with us, AND your cautionary tales, too. Thank you for tagging us on Twitter @TheHillisHome, and for using #TheHillisHome on Instagram! Keep it up!!!
Remember that although our snow EMERGENCY is over, the National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory starting at 2 pm today until 9 pm this evening. There may be more snow coming and cold temperatures, too.
Finally, please remember that we are lucky to have shelter and smartphones. If you see someone out there in the cold who needs help, you can call the DC Shelter Hotline at 1-800-535-7252, or email at uposh@upo.org for more questions. You can also dial 311 or call 202-399-7093, or finally, visit the Department of Human Services website if you need more assistance.
Stay warm!
