Hurricane Milton - Residents digging trenches and using MULCH after sand runs out

Floridians are digging trenches around their homes to hold back expected floodwater - and filling bags with MULCH after stores ran out of sand.

As Hurricane Milton churns toward Florida’s Gulf Coast, residents across the state are taking precautions.

Communities like Sarasota, Fort Myers, Orlando, Ocala, and beyond preparing for heavy winds and rain.

In New Port Richey, landscaper Jeremy Traxler, 40, couldn't get sandbags.
