If the storm is bad enough, you'll lose power. And then your TV won't be reliable.
But if you discount actual power outages, I'd say Xfinity is the best bet for internet service, and then "cut the cord" with a Roku or similar, and then sign up for any of the live TV bundles such as Hulu Live or Youtube TV. They run around $50/month and a "better than necessary" internet access will be another $50/month, which allows you to stream and use several devices on the same modem without losing speed on downloads.
You can get internet access for less than $50/month but that particular plan will allow you to add more devices and have a grandkid come with his gaming laptop on vacation and use it during the off-hours when he is left to his own entertainment.
(gaming requires super-fast access).
