[QUOTE="1905, post: 541895, member: 2668"] Friday night there was a huge storm. Not only did we lose power for 2 days, the cell phone towers were down, all supermarkets and stores-CLOSED. Even in the worst winter weather, there are still Wawa'a open- and this was for miles and miles, we got ours back on, but some people are still without. There were fires and trees uprooted blocking streets, live wires in the street and nobody was manning the traffic lights. It was chaos, I gave difficult child the contents of my fridge, his was working. 2 kids and a man were killed. We couldn't buy ice. Yesterday Wawa opened- the freezer was empty. If someting bad should happen, things will get bad quickly. I was surprised the generators wouldn't make it possible for stores to be open. All restaurants closed Saturday and Sunday. That is a huge loss. Especially around here when summer is the time to maker money here. Right now 102,000 homes a business' still without power since Friday night, down from 600,000 . I was in bed with my phone on my pillow waiting for easy child to call me for a ride home- At 3am he woke me up, he had to get a ride home with the owner of the store because he couldn't call me. He was playing Magic at a store, he usually finishes around one. They all were playing in the dark he said. We had no COFFEE! Stupid, but really I need to prepare for a worse emergency. I'm going to buy gallons of water and store them. [/QUOTE]
