This reminds me I need to get to work storing a weeks worth of water in my basement and stashing a little bit of cash in the house.

Do you have solar panels? Otherwise it won't do you much good?

		Even if you do it won't help. You need to be off-grid. The vast majority of solar panels are deliberately designed to shut down when there's a power cut so that they don't feed power back into dead wires (that might be in the middle of being repaired).

Eh, that'll take care of itself when the sump pump loses power.
