Senior Meteorologist Bob Nester with the National Weather Service Office in Missoula was ready and waiting for the call from KGVO News early Tuesday morning with details of the current cold snap.
With temperatures and wind chills plummeting during the cold snap that is affecting a large portion of the United States this week, one question stands above the rest.
With the bitter cold snap and wind chill temperatures reaching well below zero, the residents of the TSOS (Temporary Safe Outdoor Space) shelter just off Highway 93 were offered indoor shelter, but have refused.
Community Medical Center has shared a plea for help from the Poverello Center, as the extended cold snap has created an urgent need for supplies, food and cash.
