Don't really see a point to bug in if you have a way out for something like a hurricane. Just seems too "lone wolf-ey" to me if you don't have a good relationship with your neighborhood.

Eh. Im from Florida. Hurricanes aren't that big a deal. Bug in is a legit option unless you're close to water or it's a really fuck off storm like Andrew or Katrina

"Bug in"?

These idiots at my work talking about how all the water in the store is cleaned out. They're laughing saying they'll just buy gatoraid. Then saying survival of the fittest. They're both fat fucks for one and you can't cook food with gatoraid.

@Zyzz hunker down

@Zyzz it means in the event of a disaster stay in your home(bug in) instead of leaving(bug out). Depending on the disaster both are legitimate options. Some people are delusional about there ability to survive with a bug out bag going to a forest and living off local game, I wouldn't recommend it,. I would suggest everybody has at least 6 months of long term food storage I'll do a post about it.

Bug in is the more legit option 9 times out of 10

@Mark Vandal Agreed, unless you a pre stocked bug out location. Living as a refugee is very diffuclt .

also it depends on the diaster things like floods are legit bug out options if other cities are up and running you can go too.

@funny about your buddies at work most people can't fathom not buying food or water in stores things like water filters never cross the average persons mind

I had to bug out last year. The big hurricane that came through Florida came right over me and I lived by the ocean. I was gonna bug in but my buddy in the guard told me it was gonna,be bad and told me to get out. I woke up at 4 am the next morning to beat traffic while the hurricane was starting coming in. Grabbed my bag and my rifle and dipped out to a location inland

My whole area,flooded so I'm glad I got out.

@joe broebbels I have a baofeng and have been studying for my license and messed around with SDR (software defined radio) for my work doing aviation engineering, what do you want to know?

I'm currently prepping for the storm down here. When I have all my stuff ready I'll post it here. Waiting for a case of MREs I got on the way

@Mark Vandal where did you buy your MRE?

Amazon. If you're just now ordering them hurry.

Those are for my survival kit as well not just the storm. I've been putting off ordering them till now

@Deleted User Check your local surpluss stores

What is "bugging out."

@Deleted User Bugging out is grabbing your gear and moving to a safer area you've already prepared

Bugging in is prepping to stay where you're already at

Ah kk ty

@Mark Vandal I keep bpa free containers around the house to drain my water lines into. Have you ever seen the huge bladders they make for your bathtub?

@Deleted User you got it brother

Talking about those black ones that you can hang outside and the sun heard it?

Uhhh I don't know. I was thinking of those huge bladders that hook up to the spigot in your bathtub for emergencies

It's the same size as a standard bathtub

No haven't seen those

I'm probably gonna stay where I'm at for this. Most likely it'll fuck up south Florida and I'm in the north. If it swings up I'm too close to the coast for comfort and I'll head inland. That's part of prepping is having a back up blan. Don't just say I'll hunker down and hope forcthe best sometimes you gotta swallow your pride and get out of dodge

Always have a backup plan for your backup plans backup plan
