The Lafayette Consolidated Government announced Tuesday that sandbags are available to Lafayette Parish residents.
The announcement was made due to the potential for heavy rain over the next several days.
LCG said the locations will require self-bagging, and residents must provide their own shovel and manpower.
Below is a list of sandbag locations:
