Amid subzero temperatures, migrants at Chicago's "landing zone" were relocated to a temporary warming center in the basement of the Harold Washington Library, with thin clothing and wind-burnt skin due to the extreme cold. The number of migrants awaiting shelter has decreased, and the city has offered a temporary extension on its 60-day limit at migrant shelters to avoid evicting new arrivals into the dangerous cold. Governor JB Pritzker has urged Texas Governor Greg Abbott to pause busing migrants amid the winter storm, as the city faces frigid temperatures and harsh weather conditions.
