CNN reports on what to have in stock when preparing for a winter storm. According to Joann Sands, clinical assistant professor in the School of Nursing, you should have at least three days’ worth of food and water for everyone in your household. It’s important that you don’t panic-buy and try and fill your fridge, Sands said. “How are you going to be able to store this food if you don’t have power?” Sands said, adding that stocking up on extra groceries can not only lead to wasted food but could hurt others that may not be able to find what they’re looking for. Dozens of news outlets nationwide reposted the article, including WBAL-TV and AOL News.
