SANIBEL, Fla. -- A popular Southwest Florida nature preserve is closing this weekend as a precaution ahead of Hurricane Dorian.
The J.N. 'Ding' Darling National Wildlife Refuge on Sanibel Island plans to close beginning Saturday.
Rangers say a re-evaluation will be conducted post-storm. The refuge will reopen, if there are no impacts.
However, if there are impacts to the Refuge further announcements will be made at that time.
