The storm systems getting close to our area are a good reminder to replenish hurricane supplies. That's what a few people were doing at the Home Depot in Pensacola. A manager says they had a steady stream of people purchasing generators or batteries and flashlights. He says people aren't panicking yet.

“Well I think Pensacolans as a general rule are pretty savvy when it comes to storms, for the most part they're well prepared,” says Home Depot Department Supervisor Clifford Judd. Judd says they don't usually see a huge increase in business until we're faced with a category 1 or 2 hurricane.
