As I try to teach my family about survival and prepping, I find it helpful to refer to real world disasters as a "learn from the past" technique. I say to them, "If the Blizzard of '78 were to hit again today, would we be equipped to handle it? What would we do?"
Unfortunately we've only lived in the area for about a decade, so we don't have a lot of experience to draw from. For those of you who are more experienced New Englanders, can you give me a few examples of some of the more challenging NE disasters? What were the realities, how long was power out, how long were shops closed or roads impassable, etc, etc.
Thanks!
