Imo the #1 prep is a financial emergency fund. Get your wife and kids out, it’s a lot easier to deal with shite without them. They aren’t much help and often a hinderance. Have them stay with friends or family out of town or rent a place temporarily. If it’s that bad of a storm, they aren’t going to have school anyway. If your wife works figure out a plan there.
You need a lot less water, electricity, food, etc. for only 1 person.

Funds are not an issue. Also, I had no issues with my family. They helped clean up limbs and branches, helped around the neighborhood, etc and when that was done my baws spent time hammering the fish in the neighborhood pond. I’d rather have them here all things considered, than hundreds of miles away. We welcomed in extended family as well that couldn’t (and still can’t) live in their house. The answer isn’t always to leave.

this is 100% truth. its amazing how little folks are prepared to have a hotel stay for a few days to get sorted out.

Exactly. I didn’t have power for 10 days. It was just me at the house. I put 65 hrs on my generator
