Thats what happened to some relatives. Electric was out, and thus no a/c. They tried to find rooms, but all were booked. Finally on day 8 of what turned out to be an 8 day outage they got one,( it was the only one ) And that was probably due to the power being restored, and people checking out.
I bought them a generator. Will need to check on gas cans though and first aid supplies
Sadly, some people dont get that resources are limited. And that if you cant get out because the roads are flooded, the trucks with supplies cant get in.
