Sandbag sites are open in some counties tonight. Right now in Pasco County, there are two 24/7 locations that are now open: one at Magnolia Valley Golf Course in New Port Richey and the other at Public Works in San Antonio. There is also a new temporary location at Veterans Memorial Park in Hudson. That one is open from sunrise to sunset Saturday and Sunday. People visiting the New Port Richey location on Friday told 10 Tampa Bay they're not taking any chances ahead of this storm. Gerhardt Brosch of Harbor View said, "The last hurricane that blew through my area flooded many of my neighbors and myself and now we're taking a bit of precaution." Christopher Caldwell of Port Richey said, "Better to be prepared and make sure the stuff in the garage doesn't get flooded." For this storm system, it's a step most important for those who live in low-lying areas or who typically see storm surge. The sandbag sites are self-service, so if you are planning to stop by, make sure you bring a shovel.
