A cold weather shelter is opening Thursday night in Citrus County due to low temperatures in the mid to upper 30s.

The shelter will open from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. Friday at the Salvation Army, located at 712 S. School Avenue, in Lecanto, Florida. 

Officials said anyone seeking the cold weather shelter can go to any Citrus County bus stop at the last pickup time, and the driver will drop off the person at the Salvation Army at no cost. 

The person will be picked up at the Salvation Army the next morning and be taken back to the same area. 

Anyone with questions can call 352-513-4960.
