Sandbags

They're open Saturday at various locations.

Hillsborough County officials offer some tips on how to properly use sandbags and generators in the event of a hurricane.

Severe weather is expected to move across the state on Tuesday ahead of a cold front.

It's not safe to keep sandbags that came in contact with floodwater, but officials encourage residents to reuse ones that did not.

Sandbags are most likely going to benefit residents living in flood-prone areas, and even then the county allotment of 10 bags will only protect one or two doorways. Officials are encouraging those who don't really need them to leave the supply for others.

Governor Ron DeSantis signed an Executive Order Monday expanding the state of emergency to 46 Florida counties, including the entire greater Tampa Bay region.
