Gracie, I assume the "big one" is an all out hurricane that devastates the local infrastructure, at least it won't be a blizzard /ice storm.
One other thing to consider about whole house generators in TV. Many areas do not have natural gas service and so you would need an underground gasoline tank (probably prohibited and how do you keep all that gas fresh) or a propane tank. Then how big a tank and where do you get refills during a disaster? Hopefully the natural gas supply continues during a disaster, but who really knows. Never been there to try it.
