I live up in Buffalo and a friend from FL called me in a panic about no bottled water anywhere. I think Floridians have used bottled water so long, they don't think they can drink tap water. I too did not want to come off like "Captain Obvious" and gently calmed her down and told her to sanitize her bathtubs, rinse thoroughly and fill with clean water from the tap for drinking. I reminded her she also has a pool in her yard and can use that for flushing/bathing if needed. And yes, fill wastebaskets, buckets, etc for additional water supply.
