I'll bet that Montanero (a) had more that three days of food when Florence struck and (b) was glad that he did.


IIRC, the question was "how much food and water should be in your evacuation kit" 3 days is IMHO reasonable for an evacuation kit that can be carried.
A much greater supply would be prudent to store at home for any shelter in place emergency. 2 weeks as a minimum in my view, a couple of months would be better.
