We rode out Rita here when she came through..had tornadoes behind our house twisting the tops of pine trees..my only damage was a piece of aluminum flashing buckled and i popped it back in place, never even lost a shingle. I think she was a CAT 2???
The down side, without power and water for 14 days, all the food in the freezer had to be cooked or let it spoil. No generator at the time.
My suggestion would be to have a propane cooker and eat like a Cajun, everything is deep fried and injected with seasoning

God bless y'all Big Scott..stay strong!
