The City of Arlington has activated its Homeless Emergency Weather Shelter Plan for Sunday, Nov. 30 and Monday, Dec. 1, 2025. The plan comes as a strong cold front moves south through North Texas.
The city’s plan is activated on days when temperatures reach 39 degrees or below for four or more consecutive hours overnight.
The Salvation Army at 712 W. Abram St. serves as an inclement weather shelter for homeless individuals in Arlington. Intake will begin at 7 p.m. and go through 10 p.m., and IDs are required, the Office of Communication said. Exceptions will be made for drop offs by the Arlington Police Department after hours, and meals will be served.
There will also be warming locations open at the city’s public libraries during normal hours of operation. The full list of locations and their hours, as well as additional information about the shelter, can be found here.
