I wish you all in NC, VA, etc. good luck. We went through this in PR last year. No gasoline available for almost two weeks after the storms.
As of today, with no big threat looming yet this year for us, I got my two generators topped off, a 20 gallon reserve, and our three cars filled up also. In my new “camp kitchen” I have three fresh 25 lbs. propane tanks.
It was very difficult last year living without electricity and no backup for the first two weeks. And I only went 40 days without power. Most people here were months without it.
Keep your eye on Isaac.
Wow cll - you went through Maria. “Only” 40 days without power? You’re a better man than me.
