72 hours of supplies is not *nearly* enough if you plan to stay behind for a hurricane, not even in the best case areas.

I grew up on Galveston Bay and we had *three weeks* of food, drinking water, cooking fuel, medical supplies. We also had experience at camping in the woods.

(this was back when "camping" did not require the use of electric generators, TVs, cell phones, etc)

I had said here that the longest we were without electricity was 18 days but my mother tells me it was only 12 days. This is perhaps 2 miles from the NASA campus, not in the backwoods somewhere..

Three weeks is clearly not too much for a coastal area. Further inland such as Blast's home I might be willing to go with as little as 10 days if I could be confident of evacuation should supplies prove insufficient.
