Be seriously careful with the candles- we used to use them during storms but not anymore.  They are friggin dangerous especially if you've been drinking.  If you use them at least have a fire extinguisher handy and know how to use it.

Spent 10 years in the Navy, and there are two things virtually every sailor learns, painting and firefighting. 

We put the candles on a metal pan, only have them in the room we are in and kill them if we leave or go to bed.

You guys have great info for hurricanes but winter is coming. Which means ice storms and these kits will still be needed. 

Also buy some tire cables

Not looking like it.  The local Target around here was like a mad house.  Is all this hysteria really necessary?  People just losing it.  Most everything was available but all water, bread and strangely tuna fish was gone. 

And nary a flashlight could be found.  But the candle aisle was full.  Weird.
