NOW is an excellent time to stock up on food, water, necessities. Up to 30 days worth if you can. 10 days' supply minimum. IN CASE OF EMERGENCY.
Canned & dry non-perishable food (doesn't have to be expensive. Think rice, beans, pasta...)
Bottled Water, maybe a water purifier from your camping store.
Medications and pet food. Whatever you need to be comfortable.
Fill those BBQ tanks to cook & boil. Maybe a power generator and heavy extension cords (for fridge/freezer - always run outdoors). Spare fuel for genset and also for your vehicle. Keep car fuel tank on FULL.
Flashlights & batteries (cheap solar landscape lights work in a pinch.)
Cash on hand. Your preferred personal Self-Defense protection.
Got camping gear? Keep it handy.
Maybe a CB or HAM radio (CBs available at your local truck stop for around $300 complete).
Most of all, HAVE A PLAN to get loved ones together if communications go down. Protect kids & elderly.
BE PREPARED, NOT SCARED!
