I lose power if a cloud farts. I picked up a lot from Hurricane Irma 2017. Power was out for over a week (I get my water from a well), and my generator decided to puke out on me, and I did not bother to check my gas grill (also out of commission) Flashlights (1000 lum) sitting on counter pointed at low white ceiling gave me light, and battery operated fans kept me comfortable. I ran gallons of water through my Berkey before hand, and was smart enough to get plenty of food that did not need cooking. I cooked what I had to cook before the storm. I knew it was going to be bad when there was only one path (determined by all weather people ) coming off Africa. that gave me plenty of time, and to convince others how bad it was going to be. No power can be dealt with if you are prepared.
