Fill up the bath tub. And there is always the toilet
shoot...come up to Oklahoma City...we now have an NBA team, a Bass Pro Shop and a river walk. More fun than you can imagine. Think of this storm as an excuse to visit sunny Oklahoma City! We even have the national heatdquarters for Sonic and Six Flags!
Ok...seriously though, we will always welcome our neighbors to the south if they need shelter. Keep us in mind!

Do you have a pool?
I have to tell my customers that in an event like this, your pool may be your only source of drinking water. Dump a LOT of bleach in it.

While I don't have a lot of sympathy for those that aren't prepared...that's a little harsh, even for my standards //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
If you live in a hurricane-prone area, you need (before the storm is bearing down on you...buy this shit over the summer when nobody's thinking about hurricanes)
* Adequate drinking water...one gallon per person per day
* Snack/junk food
* Light sources
* Adequate power supplies - not just cheap D cell batteries...get a few hundred amp hours of deep cycle gel cells. Keep them on a float charge. A generator is ideal, but you need fuel for it unless you get an LPG conversion.
* Communications - often overlooked, but a cheap VHF/UHF scanner is enough to let you listen to not only the mainstream media, but the emergency traffic that's in your area. Lets you know things before any other sources tell you. In a disaster, communications is priceless.
Basically, try to stockpile enough shit to make you self-sufficient and stable for two weeks. Beyond that time, either the infrastructure is so badly damaged that you're going to have to improvise on the go, or help would have arrived.
Disasters **** balls, no doubt, but if you actually take time before the storm season, not just a week before the thing makes landfall, you can mitigate your own situation...hopefully.
