TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - Residents in Tallahassee are getting ready for the possible impact of Hurricane Irma.
As supplies continue to dwindle, there are several locations for residents to go to get sandbags.
We caught up with a few residents today who say this is just one of the ways to prepare for bad weather. They say, they're thankful the city provides locations for area residents to stock up on sand bags as needed.
If you still need sandbags for the upcoming hurricane these locations still have bags.
