North Carolina Gov. Josh Stein said he will continue to use every resource at his disposal to ensure that residents impacted by Hurricane Helene stay warm, as winter storms sweep across the state – potentially affecting power grids and other critical infrastructure impacted by the prior storm.

Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) temporary housing assistance will end Saturday for thousands of North Carolina residents, some of whom are facing frigid temperatures this weekend in the Appalachian Mountain region.

“At our request, FEMA has extended temporary shelter assistance through Tuesday in light of the winter storm impacting western North Carolina,” Stein’s office confirmed to FOX Business.

The Transitional Sheltering Assistance (TSA) program, which cannot be requested and was only granted to survivors identified by FEMA beginning in October, was set to end on Friday and later pushed back to Saturday.

FEMA’s local disaster recovery centers will be closed through Monday, “due to winter weather.”

“I will continue to use every resource at my disposal to get folks into safe and warm shelter,” said Gov. Josh Stein.

North Carolinians started receiving letters on Jan. 3 informing them their hotel or motel rooms would no longer be covered, Fox News Digital reported. When eligibility ends, they are given a week’s notice to check out.

Thousands of Hurricane Helene survivors continue to be supported by the program in western North Carolina, following the September storm.

There are currently 5,600 households currently checked into hotels, according to FEMA.

The agency said those with questions about eligibility should contact the FEMA helpline at 1-800-621-3362.
