You nailed it - be prepared! I have my gas tanks filled with STA-BIL fuel storage additive, a couple crates of bottled water, and a couple of propane tanks. Was ready for Beryl this year when it hit. Was without power for 6 days. No problem. Since Beryl, I restocked, and was ready for Helane in case it came this way.
I learned valuable lessons from Hurricane Ike, like BE PREPARED! Because the chaos, and all the stupidity with it, can swallow you up. Fast.
