I think that prepping for a hurricane is similar to prepping for a bad winter storm in the north. I lived in southern Florida for a number of years and the hurricanes were not that bad then. I now live in Ohio and use the same ideas with a few exceptions due to winter weather. I have enough supplies for my family to eat as if nothing bad were happening for three or four days. If I had to stretch it out a bit longer I could go for a week easy. Using resources in the home and some ingenuity with the help of my wife I know we could go for a month. It would be rough but we could do it.
