With the possibility of snow headed for Brooklyn this weekend, people are trying to get ahead of the storm.<\/p>\n
Floor Manager Les Sanchez for Brooklyn’s Best Locksmith & Hardware in Flatlands says even though it’s days out from the storm, they’ve been slammed.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s been absolutely crazy around the block all day since 9:00 this morning to probably be close. And we’ll probably be here later,” said Sanchez.<\/p>\n
Customers like Jennifer Greaves told News 12 they had trouble finding supplies like road salt and pellets at larger stores and went to local stores to get what they needed.<\/p>\n
\u201cI just went to Lowes and they were sold out so I came here. I don\u2019t live farm from here and I don\u2019t feel like driving all over looking for salt,” said Greaves.<\/p>\n
Sanchez says Thursday alone they sold out of nine pallets of one kind of pellet, and he says they don’t expect business to stop as the storm approaches.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s going to continue probably the next four days until it\u2019s done. It\u2019s going to be nonstop,” said Sanchez.<\/p>\n
The Flatlands store says they already sold out of some products but have another shipment coming on Friday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With the possibility of snow headed for Brooklyn this weekend, people are trying to get ahead of the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":109169,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[98,100,99,28205,9,24,63,8555,39918,30712,34018,49106],"class_list":["post-109302","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn-headlines","tag-brooklyn-news","tag-flatlands","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-snow","tag-snow-alert","tag-snowfall","tag-snowstorm","tag-snowstorm-preps"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/109302","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=109302"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/109302\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/109169"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=109302"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=109302"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=109302"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
