Quoting: Starry eyes Insane.

Quoting: Starry eyes I'm in a panic. She has 3 days worth of food... They probably dont have good battery/gen back-up for the pumps,your mom should start boiling some drinking water like today. Water is first thing she should take care of! Agreed. Any time there's a big storm or disaster the first thing I do is fill the tub with water out of habit. That's in case the storm makes any more water that comes through the pipes undrinkable or if it breaks the pipes. anyone that has only 3 days of food and water at their residence is stooopid |

Kk User ID: 18634209 United States 06/30/2012 07:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Just a little update, electric is off is many places which is causing the gas shortage, no electric, no gas. The stores are emptying because there's no telling when electric will be back up. Cell towers are not working and phone lines are down so some people are panicking because they haven't talked to love ones. My daughter is in Charleston but was able to get out to a library to text me. She has electric but no cell, phone, or Internet. A lot of trees causing damage to houses and making roads difficult to travel on. We are in the mountains and over half of our county is without electric. Mostly wind damage. State police are asking for people to stay off the roads so crews can get through to cut tree branches, repair lines, and open roads. Some towns have curfews and I have been told that police are monitoring gas stations to keep the peace. What stations that have electric are starting to run out of gas. It will be several days before the damage can be reversed. Very little lost of life. The wind came upon us so suddenly at around sixty to eighty miles per hour. The weather service in our area down played the weather reporting that it would weaken before it hit here. It didn't. |
AC User ID: 1560850 United States 06/30/2012 07:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I get a few laughs from the family because I keep empty soda bottles filled with water. Little known fact: Plastic soda bottles are a different grade of plastic than milk and juice jugs. Clear plastic soda bottles are "food grade" plastic. The water will stay fresh much longer. I dump the water once a month on my outdoor plants, rinse the bottles out and refill them. Storing water is a good idea to have in case of an emergency. You can always take a sponge bath with the water, or give it to the pets. |

Water is first thing she should take care of! Yes, I told her to do that. I also told her she needs to store her cold foot in ice water mixed with salt and keep in the fridge. Thankfully, she has a gas stove. I heard there have been people freaking out at the local CVS and gas stations. Wow,hope your mom will be ok op,if she has some blankets see if she will wrap them around her fridge for insulation. hope folks dont riot,that only makes shit get bad really,really quick... like cops will start shooting folks. *food* People riot over food, water and other resources. I hope it doesn't get to this tho. The Amish communities live there, they're a people to learn how to survive. |
