SEATTLE — The Seattle Fire Department is taking extra precautions this week against the cold snap that is currently rolling across Washington.
Firefighters will be operating two Health One units and a new medical ambulance bus as temperatures will continue to drop on Sunday.
The units are equipped with cold-weather supplies including clothing, blankets, hand warmers, food, and warm drinks.
“Our Medical Ambulance Bus will travel to pre-identified larger encampment locations to provide unsheltered individuals a break from the cold and help coordinate transport to a warming center,” said a spokesperson.
