The warming centers operated 24 hours a day, offering those without electricity a warm place to sleep and eat until their power was restored.By 24 December, four days after the storm, 69,800 customers throughout the city were still without electricity. Approximately 1,000 people spent Christmas Eve in the warming centers.
