We're in the Pacific Northwest and just got about 5 inches of snow still frozen to the roads - and now I can't believe we're supposed to get hit now with a high wind storm with 50-70 mph winds and snow starting later today - it sounds like a blizzard. People could be without power for days after this, with freezing temps. People need to prepare as much as possible - I mean who expected snow in VEGAS??...these are some of the conditions that make disaster kits handy because they come with flashlights, emergency blankets, radios w/ batteries, and a whole lot more...they also make a great gift for the holidays considering we're not the only ones experiencing severe weather. We got one of the kits sold at the DisasterRx.com website - they have all kinds of emergency stuff in them. It's just a good idea for everyone to have something like that around.
