Cardoza says some of the most important tips to keep in mind in this type of weather is to call 9-1-1 during a major emergency.

"Any resident in or out of Mission can actually subscribe to it and get alerts,” Cardoza said. “We utilize these applications as we see emergency needs and information we need to get out to the public."

Sandbag distribution will run from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., weather permitting.

Mission residents will need a utility bill or ID to show proof of residency.
