Several stores around the city are already sold out of water, but employees say more is on the way.
Channel 9 reporter Lauren Seabrook stopped by a few local stores to see what they have left.
"You can see already. So, there's nothing going to be here on Thursday or Friday," said customer Jose Cruz.
Cruz knows a thing or two about preparing for a hurricane. "I've been here since '78, so I've gone through quite a few."
At a local Target, shelves are starting to look empty.
"A lot of the things we're seeing is water, nonperishable foods and snacks, batteries, flashlights, lanterns, anything camping-related. Those types of items," Store Director Rebecca Roberts said.

"They're working really every day to try and get us deliveries of especially the supplies that we need," Roberts said.
