2 meter works great though! Hope we don't lose any repeaters.
If you are in the path of the storm, you will. Repeaters usually don't have a whole ton of backup power either. Even if the antenna lives, I doubt that it would last too long once power goes out.
Here, after the storms last year, the local popular repeater was running off of a generator. Somebody has to fill up the gas tank twice a day in order to keep it running.
