Tropical Storm Debbie-Prepping
In response to Diesel's message, I really looked hard at my supplies today because of Tropical Storm Debbie. Added more canned goods, cleaning products, bought more bottled water, batteries and 10 more gallons of no ethanol gas in some containers just because I had the empty containers. As Scarlet would say" Tomorrow is another Day"

I went to Mom's. She and Pop are up north at the cabin. So I had to go batton down their place and while I was there, I picked up my dutch oven. Mom said I could have it a while back, but I procrastinate going after it. I have to go back today, and plan on looking for the little generator I have stored there. We have several accross the street at work, but I need to do maintanence on mine just in case."The constitution does not guarentee our safety, only our liberty!" Robert Steed before congress 3/2013

Be safe.
If TSHTF, take notes for us, you can back-brief when electricity and internet are restored!
I'd love to have a first-hand account of what really happened during Katrina. We read so much that turns out to be crap..."If Howdy Doody runs against him, I'm voting for the puppet." - SkyOwl's Wife, 2012

It looks like RICHFL really got hammered with a river running through his front yard. You guys are all in our prayers. It begs the question. How do you prepare when you are in a low-lying area, and you get flooded so quickly? Do you keep supplies up high in second story vs. basement? Do you know the topography, so you can get to higher ground? Where do you go? Do you use a boat?
I have personally survived a 500 year flood with no consequences, and very little inconvenience, so that really isn't part of my plan.The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary.
