Largely because if you see how much bottled water you'd stock for a family - 4 litres per person per day - if supplies were cut off entirely, the advice would be ignored. Better to aim for 'three days of no internet connection and intermittent power and water supply' and build from there.

1. This is getting very 'We know something you don't', rarely a good look 2. Why 3 days? Cos it matches the crucifixion/resurrection interregnum?

If you are ‘stockpiling’ 4 litres per day i fear for your hygiene. Get a couple of water buts and get to wash & flush your toilets!

The worry is around a devastating cyber attack I think. Which it would make sense to short-term stockpile over to ride out

Or sabotage of a water treatment plant or electrical substation, which would be very easy to do with drones or even a half competent operative.

Don’t really understand all the fuss about this - ‘cos this is routine in a lot of European countries. I’ve had a small ‘emergency cupboard’ for years + I live somewhere where there are a fair few power cuts so I now have a small eco-generator which keeps lights on and can charge torch and phone

It’s so rare to have a power cut in my part of the UK that when the power went out for 30 minutes last we were completely discombobulated. The kids (teens) had never experienced it.

@walking-girl.bsky.social

Wow! I used to live somewhere like that so I can imagine the surprise, but now live in a very windswept place so I’ve got used to them. I believe power cuts were even more common a few years ago, but after Storm Arden they put the electric power cables underground - rather than overhead…
