Ach! Jock! Have ye no derring do? I'm sure that if I mount the roof in my 22 0z military weight box pleated kilt, it will keep me safe from all harm--and that looters will keep their distance! Or maybe it will be the .303 Lee Enfield No. 4 Mark 1 I'll be clutching in my paws that keeps them away...
Seriously, everyone stay off the roof, get to higher ground, lay in water, cans of food that don't need cooking, batteries...you know the drill.
Be safe. Be well.
