After living in Northern CA. and enduring a fire, 2 huge Earthquakes and a terrible flood:
I ALWAYS have candles, batteries & flashlight, canned food, water...etc.
However: I was ready to move to Ohio ASAP!
After we got to Ohio, the land of rain and snow - I realized that there is nothing you can do to prepare for a blizzard in Ohio & our place doesn't have a fireplace. When we were without power last winter, I was glad I had friends with fireplaces and a job where there was still heat.
Anyone who says " ignore the need to be prepared" is a total idiot IMO.
Having your head in the sand is closer to putting it elsewhere & while there just kiss your butt good bye. We won't miss ya.
