Orlando, Florida – It took Lynette Núñez two and a half hours waiting in her car to reach the Meadows area of Orlando on Monday, where she was picking up several sandbags. “We don’t live in a flood zone, but we have a small lake behind our house, and we want to place sandbags around it, just in case. Everyone is a bit desperate for sand, but we need to stay calm, even though we’ve never experienced a hurricane like this in Orlando,” said Núñez, a native of Quebradillas who has lived in the city for 12 years.
