I'm getting ready to go check the stores, gas stations, etc and was wondering if anyone has noticed any signs here yet.

Jim, Meijer in West Chester has a big Y2K aisle with Toilet paper, bottled water, generators, etc. Just left there and saw a handful of people buying kerosene cans, TP. Ace hardware has propane tank right in front of office and it's staying pretty busy with people filling up. Other than that not much.

Nothing too noticable in Northern Kentucky. Lowes had a huge number or kerosene heaters two weeks ago and very few now. Can't find any 5 gal. gas cans either. Meijer is out of kerosene heaters and generaters. Did notice a few people at Sam's with overloaded carts of what I would consider prep stuff. Other than that, nothing much going on.
