We've had a nice break this summer; a chance to live a relatively "normal" life.
However, Fall is coming. This means several things.
First, there will be Swine Flu Outbreak II this Fall. The authorities guarantee it -- they're not trying to prevent it, they are merely preparing for mass vaccinations (avoid them!), rioting, etc. Whether or not the virus is man-made is beside the point -- the shelves at your store will be bare, there will be soldiers patrolling the streets, you will have to "lay low" to avoid vaccination, etc. and we'll have to deal with that reality.
I would recommend "topping off" your preparations -- you seriously might be living off them, at least on a short-term basis. You won't want to need groceries every week when leaving the house means risk of infection (or worse, risk of getting force-vaccinated!)
Beyond Swine Flu, there are other things that might very well happen this fall. Iran might be attacked, which unfortunately means World War 3. China/Russia have said as much publicly. They are both allied with Iran. They said that "if Israel nukes Iran, it will be world war." Now it's certainly much harder to prepare for nuclear war and/or invasion by the Russians. (Our Lady specifically asked for Russia to be consecrated to her Immaculate Heart, and the Pope hasn't yet complied with her request... )
And we know that governments around the world are building tunnels into mountains to prepare for SOMETHING.
