Pocono Summit, Monroe County -- The American Red Cross set-up several warming stations in Monroe County including one at Pocono Mountain West High School.
Since classes are canceled, storm victims can drop by and warm-up with a hot meal, charge their cell phones and lap tops and more importantly get a much-needed shower.
"Long shower. Nice, nice time. I took my time and just stayed, stayed there," said Darwyn Ingram of Pocono Summit.
With the power still out in the Poconos, the warming stations will remain until further notice.
They are available at Pocono Mountain West High School from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m., East Stroudsburg North High School from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Pleasant Valley Middle School from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and East Stroudsburg University Koehler Fieldhouse from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m.
