I have blankets, a small generator with heavy duty power cords and spare powerbars, 2 UPS battery backups, 2 new battery operated air pumps, two propane Weber BBQs with side burners to heat up water and spare propane tanks, with up to six jerry cans of gas to fuel my generator. Also, I'm in the planning stage for setting up a solar power system in my backyard with solar panels over my shed and pergola to charge a bank of four to six deep cycle batteries. - Again, it "helps" to be OCD.
My best "insurance" though seems to be that the powerlines in my neighbourhood are underground and so protected from wind storms, falling trees, and those types of disasters.
