It is actually scary to see how grocery stores are cleaned out. Snow shovels sold out? Do you throw them away every year? WTH?? As if they won’t survive till Tuesday. Did the jabs or living through the lockdown damage their brains?

I bought a genny this year; last year I nearly lost a deep freezer full of meat. We buy beef by the quarter here; there are many cattleman here; and beef is tasty, but expensive.
It’s not nearly as expensive as frozen pipes; in 2021 we replaced a cracked pipe, ship lap, and rotted floor.
Ice storms are worth preparing for; when I was a youth in NC we had a snow of the century event; and were without power for a week.
Anyway I think the fear is no good; but the preparation for the future is good.
Agreed. I bought, for the first time, outdoor spigot insulation. My instagram algorithm has been tailored to include home repair and construction. It's been a very useful tool, over the years.
