Hi @Chrystaltree2,

Someone may not know what to have/what to do, if they haven't lived or grown up in an area where storms are common.

Sometimes when we're afraid too, we may not be able to think as clearly about what we need to do, and we may not be able to think about all of the items we might need to have on hand in order to be best prepared as possible for a storm.

        She asked what she should have on hand to eat.....not about preparing for a storm.

Hi @Chrystaltree2,

It's about being prepared, and having food on hand in case the power goes out. To me, both go together--having food on hand, and being prepared for a storm, in case the power goes out, as it does where I live because storms can be severe, all year 'round.
