NOAA and the Farmer's Almanac both say we're due for a huge blizzard around 20" to 30" of snow. We get one every 8 to 12 years where I live and its been 9 years since the last one.
We have 3 weeks of feed for us and our livestock, generator, fuel, gas cookers, lamps, candles, games, books, etc.
It never hurts to be prepared.

The most important thing - A snowblower.

In Minnesota, we need a two-stage one at least a couple of times a year. I gave my old one to a neighbor who can't afford one. It is still running, so he'll have a head-start for this winter.
