I agree with Dog Folks. oops, it's actually 805gregg I agree with.
As for 120 MPH winds, that is why we have a basement with an extra kitchen in it. We can survive 120 MPH winds. our house on top of it may not. but what would running accomplish for us? For us and probably many others we have planned for all reasonable scenarios and with our situation bugging out wouldn't help.
That doesn't mean I disagree with the idea that a loaded camper isn't a good idea.
If we lived in flood areas or hurricane areas we wold have it loaded and ready to roll and be wishing we had a solution to traffic jams.
This discussion shows very clearly that "bugging out or not" is dependent on two factors:
1. Your geographic location
2. Your personal plan.
We, in Florida, for example, do not have a basement to shelter in.
It is either build a hurricane resistant "safe" room, above grade, or leave. Some recommend moving "up" in some condos.
If leaving, avoiding the traffic has one solution: Leave very early.
I agree with you on this but I would add a
