Residents from southeast Texas are emptying store shelves of basic necessities, making it increasingly difficult to find items like eggs, bread and water.
In Georgia, grocery stores were packed as families, college students and grandparents rushed to prepare ahead of the ice storm, CNN reported. Shoppers in some areas waited in line, while other shoppers described crowded aisles and empty shelves as they tried to stock up on supplies to weather the storm.
"We're also stocking up on pasta and light things that we can make. Different types of bread, which people think they should buy but no bananas. No bananas," said one shopper
Similar scenes unfolded in Virginia, where shoppers moving through stores found empty shelves and long lines at the checkout.
"I know people want to be prepared, but relax, you don't need to buy all the toilet paper in Virginia. Some of the things I wanted to make sure I had, I don't have," said another.
A Dallas resident told the Associated Press that she was stockpiling chickens, eggs and prepared food ahead of the storm.
"It's going to be a big storm," Maricela Resendiz told the AP. Her plans are to stay inside, just not interfere.
