Im a bit of a prepper and dont want to cause alarm to anyone. I was also a boy scout. I know we are also far from the conflict but here some helpful tips just for any situation : have some extra clean water supply at least for a few days. If possible invest in a 3 stage (or more) water filtration system. Have a "go bag" ready. In case comms go down (cell internet) have one of those cheap old school battery powered radios. A simple emergency medkit, at least alcohol, betadine and cotton.

Spain had a recent blackout, 2-3 weeks ago and they were mostly a cashless society. So they had problems withdrawing, etc. They also had a lot of terrifying fake news. For some reason people like to share bad news during times of calamity. An example of the fake news in Spain during the 24 hour blackout was - the Russians were invading! Which did not seem plausible but nevertheless was used by unscrupulous individuals.

When comms are down, have a designated meetup point if your family is all around. The primary residence is ok, but if circumstances force you to abandon, have a secondary safe space that everone should know prior to any emergency.

We have grown so reliant on the internet that losing it seems to have "blinded" many on how to go about without it.

Again, this is only for informational purposes, nothing to worry about, but always be prepared in prayers and in the physical world. Have a pleasant and restful Monday evening.
