Well, there"s always the possibility that you could get marooned for a few days. Most of us have a stock of long term groceries and supplies that"ll see us through a several day session. Menus may be a little curious towards the end, but! A lot of the groceries we worked hard hoarding (canning, freezing,) over the summer. Put meat and venison in the freeezer, etc. Perhaps the bigger "if" is loss of electrical power, and how long we can survive with a generator. If you loose power, water, heat and refrigeration become serious issues real quick. Especially if you have animals that need feed and water.
Where in Michigan, we"re still recovering from an ice storm that ripped power out over a quarter of the state, or more. Some did not get power back for over a week. Line crews came to Michigan from as far away as Kansas and Washington DC.

To be followed with an arctic blast of winds and temperatures below zero with chill factors to -30. Then there"s the drifting and lake effect snow. Could be a uncomfortable few days. Do you blame folks for stocking up?
My guess is that those who are panic shopping before the storm aren"t well prepared to begin with - at least they pack it in before the storm!

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
