The San Diego County Department of Public Works is making sandbags available to residents at several locations ahead of an upcoming set of storms. It's recommended that residents call ahead to check on sand and bag availability before arriving. Residents should also bring their own shovels as a precaution, as they are not guaranteed.
Residents are limited to 10 sandbags per household and will be required to show proof of residency at locations in their town.
