TAMPA, FL — Feeding Tampa Bay's team is ramping up to help individuals and families impacted by Tropical Storm Elsa.

For the safety of the team and volunteers, Feeding Tampa Bay operations will pause Tuesday at 4 p.m. and resume Wednesday at noon.

"While we anticipate the effects of Elsa will range in impact and intensity across our 10-county region, food and water is often the first need that requires attention during disaster relief and response," said CEO Thomas Mantz. "We know the storm has the potential to impact many and are prepared with supplies and meals to meet the needs wherever the need may appear. We are ready."
