With rain expected to continue falling across the area Monday, additional shelter space was opened by the San Diego Housing Commission and the city of San Diego to help the homeless escape the inclement weather.
The following locations were open Tuesday as part of the city's Inclement Weather Shelter Program:
— Father Joe's Villages, Joan Kroc Center, 1501 Imperial Ave., will accept up to 61 adults with an additional 11 beds for families with minor children or single women. Check-in starts at 4 p.m. and will continue through the night until full. Check-out at 5 a.m.

The shelter bed program, which generally operates during the winter months, is activated when temperatures drop below 45 degrees, when the temperature is 50 or below and there is a 40% chance of rain, or when there are "exceptional weather conditions," such as one or more inches of rain within a 24-hour period.
