We have a high definition DVR and have many recorded programs and we just watch those while the storm is going on. This may be frustrating for someone who loves to watch football and a storm pops up. For us it has not been an issue. We do have Comcast for our internet service. Very few interruptions and we have over 50 mbps.
You can also go online and watch the DirecTV programming while your dish is out of commission. I have had to do that a couple of times this year. Watching on my 37" Computer monitor is not really torture.
