I have seen varying inputs, on forums and YouTube channels, about whether to bug out or not. Assuming you choose to not bug out, one must have a good source of clean water available should a shortage come.
I've got the following items:
1. Water Collection/Rain barrels for taking roof run off. This is not potable, but can be used for bathing or used with a filter. Currently I use it for watering plants in my garden.
2. The Reservoir -- Store up to 100 gallons in your bathtub. The trick is when you decide to store the water, is it already too late? I plan is if things look like they could turn nasty, then get filled up beforehand.
3. Katadyn Water filter system
4. Water purification tablets.
5. Periodically buy 5 gal water jugs.
Short of spending any more money, I think I'm as covered as I'll ever be.
