Those effected by the power outages today. As your power slowly returns let's this be a reminder of how important having emergency supplies are, bottle water, battery powered radio, non perishable food, and light. You don't have to by hyper paranoid but you should have enough to last your family 2-3 days in case of an emergency. Don't expect to be able to run out and buy these things because as you might have witnessed today most stores close, those that stay open ration or price hike the items and pretty much all of them operate on a cash only basis. Glad everyone is ok and I hope those who are still without power have it returned to them soon!! :-)
