3.5 million people on an island… and no power. That is some scary stuff.
I’ve endured a couple of island outages for several days after hurricanes… and one day long one after an earthquake knocked the plants offline for 24 hours. We have a million people on Oahu. The supply chains are long and stretched thin, and a disruption has ripple effects for weeks afterward. Island living means prepping and self-reliance as much as possible.
