Know what shelters accept pets. Many/most do not. Know which hotels accept pets in TV and within a couple hour drive in various directions.
Have water and nonperishable items. Have a filled tank for your grill. You can grill peppers, zucchini, squash, onions just to name a few.
Keep your laundry done. That sounds silly, but laundry mats are not fun.
Keep your car gas topped off.
I have not experienced a weather event in TV.

And keep your phone and/or other electronics charged. As of last night, WESH 2 was telling people who lived inland that there would be no reason to evacuate. However, have not heard a forecast this morning.
