Popular Post NCC1701A Posted January 2, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 2, 2019 With the approach of Tropical Storm Pabuk I have begun thinking about what I am going to need to get through the weekend. When faced with a possible life or death situation it is normal to want to be with your loved ones. So I have asked May and her friend May to stay with me. I am fortunate as I have just met them both four days ago and they expressed their love for me almost immediately. So I have that covered. I don't want to risk overlooking anything so I am open to suggestions of what I should pick up at the market in the next couple of days. As an American I have all the things listed in this kit already. Thanks for any input: 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) Is your home prone to flooding? Would be my first concern. Move important/valuable stuff to safe place and think how to evacuate in time to higher grounds. Incl. car/vehicle. Tank filled up. Expect power outages, batteries, batteries.. for torch lights/emergency lights. Mobile phone net should survive. So have power-banks and mobile phones charged. 16 minutes ago, NCC1701A said: in the next couple of days Couple of days? I would hurry up tomorrow. Lots more for others to add...

impulse Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) Water, water, and more water. Drinking water, that is. I still recall the flood of 2011 when it was hard to find drinking water in many areas. I also stocked up on crackers and cans of tuna and sardines. Stuff that wasn't perishable, and didn't need to be cooked. Thank goodness I didn't need them, but I did go through gallons and gallons of bottled water.

NCC1701A Posted January 3, 2019 Author Share Posted January 3, 2019 the storm is predicted to move more to the south which means it may not rain so much here. I don't think I will tell May and May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the storm getting ever close ( I presume , just sun and calm up here ) are you still sure May and May will stay or may May and May leave 'till April ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanuckThai Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Yeah, sounds risky only having May and May. Disaster mitigation specialists would have May, May and May organised for a 3 day survival exercise. ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
