Honestly, nothing. been through so many of these, it's just a nothing to us. especially when this isn't landing above a Cat 3. I remember our first one...we boarded up and took off... total waste of time and money. Typically make sure your car is filled up, after that if there are issues after the storm you have a few hundred miles of gas to 'fix' the issue. Which may be getting a hotel room for a night (power and/or water out). We've never had to, but that's just what we do.
