Remember to keep your four-legged friends safe.
In Manatee County, north of Sarasota, emergency officials are asking for help from anyone willing to provide a short-term foster home for any of their dogs from the animal shelter during the storm.
The county says it wants to move as many of its shelter dogs into safe homes through the weekend, depending on the weather. It said it will provide all the food and supplies needed by foster families.
It is coordinating fosters from its Palmetto shelter from noon to 6 p.m. Wednesday.
