I think one often overlooked problem is boredom. Assuming that power is out, *most* usual forms of entertainment are unavailable as well. Unless you have a large number of books that you haven't read, or are willing to re-read old ones, there might not be a lot to take up your down time. This issue will be magnified by the number of people in close quarters.
