Thu Feb 2 12:14:14 EST 2023

Dear Service Providers/Cher fournisseurs de services,

Ottawa Public Health (OPH) has issued a Frostbite Warning to ensure people take appropriate precautions before going outside and to encourage homeless people to seek indoor shelter from the cold. A Frostbite Warning is issued when a wind chill of -35 or colder is forecast by Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) for the Ottawa area. ECCC has issued an extreme cold warning<https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fecalertme.weather.gc.ca%2Fwarning-latest_en.php%3Fualert_id%3D2038%26alert_code%3DECW&data=05%7C01%7CMartha.Robinson%40ottawa.ca%7Ceeb3974ac05a47ea1cda08db0540beed%7Cdfcc033ddf874c6ea1b88eaa73f1b72e%7C0%7C0%7C638109547894184788%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=B9ml398aJOj9cqcpY5aE%2FSnWnNkZsnMHOtNoNmfM0pA%3D&reserved=0> for the City of Ottawa.  With a wind chill of -35 or colder, exposed skin can freeze in less than ten minutes.  There is also an increased risk of hypothermia for people who stay outside for long periods of time without adequate protection. Overexposure can result in severe injury and even death.  OPH recommends that you wear multiple layers of clothing to keep warm and make sure that the outer layer protects you from wind and moisture.

Santé publique Ottawa (SPO) émet une mise en garde contre les engelures afin d’inciter les résidents à prendre les précautions nécessaires avant de sortir et d’encourager les sans-abri à trouver refuge à l’intérieur.  Une mise en garde contre les engelures est émise lorsqu’Environnement et Changement climatique Canada (ECCC) prévoit un refroidissement éolien de -35 ou plus dans la région d’Ottawa. ECCC a émis un avertissement de froid extrême<https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fecalertezmoi.meteo.gc.ca%2Fwarning-latest_fr.php%3Fualert_id%3D2038%26alert_code%3DECW&data=05%7C01%7CMartha.Robinson%40ottawa.ca%7Ceeb3974ac05a47ea1cda08db0540beed%7Cdfcc033ddf874c6ea1b88eaa73f1b72e%7C0%7C0%7C638109547894341031%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=UW2Xkp4gBPWvPkdWD4G1n8SMfUxKk3%2BSukYzbsS0xFY%3D&reserved=0> pour la Ville d’Ottawa.  Dans ces conditions, la peau exposée peut geler en moins de 10 minutes. Les risques d’hypothermie augmentent également pour les personnes qui restent dehors pendant de longues périodes sans être adéquatement protégées du froid. Une surexposition au froid peut entraîner de graves blessures, voire la mort. SPO recommande de porter plusieurs couches de vêtements pour rester au chaud et de s’assurer que la couche extérieure protège du vent et de l’humidité.
