Time to do a bug out check, 72 hrs of food water, 30 days of meds, etc. these people will try to ratchet up through comm disruptions, denial of services, disruption of power and water grids, ( they are not buying water rights, media, food distribution/supply companies for nothing dontcha know).

Don’t we have a bug out thread? Don’t forget alternative power supplies i.e. Batteries, portable AC battery supplies ( oxygen generators, CPAP, etc) other DC battery needs!

TIK, do you have a good thread or link handy for crash course on bug out bag and emergency preparedness. If so could you post a link or two? Thanks GE

No, unfortunately, we don't have a "bug-out thread",
because each individual has individual needs, prescriptive medications, water, food, refrigeration, wound medications, tools, etc,. etc.. which are unique to them.
Water :In general, an average one gallon of water weighs #8 pounds each,..
much better to have a good, reliable water filter that you are familiar with, and in which you are willing to bet your health if you are moving around.
Shelter : , knowing how to use various materials to establish a weather resistant domicile to protect from cold, winds, rain, or snow.
Food : dehydrated food is good, flash frozen is even better nutritionally, but is bulkier where space is a consideration.
Better to have seeds which are easier to transport, but require time and patience,
, fertilizer, access to water in order to grow your own food,;
have both hybrids for food production, and heirlooms for historical persistence to disease,
and for food reliability and 'open pollenation', heirlooms are the best and remaining true to seed.
Medications : vary individually, but be most mindful of those medications which require refrigeration (electricity) or understand "swamp cooler", or "spring house".
or, those which require battery system, solar collectors, wind tunnel generators, etc.
Tools : hand tools, wrench, pliers, hammer, axe, knife, lineman tools, etc., etc.
And that is just the start ....depending on your needs, and comfort ! !
