And places like NOLA and SW Florida don't have basements because of high groundwater tables, And most of the West doesn't have basements because land is cheap and basements are expensive--so they have sprawl instead.

Well it stands to reason that when you are notified of an impending
disaster and that disaster includes a possible flood, you would move
your supplies to where you would be using them.

Of course, even if you have a "Mormon pantry", if it is in the
basement and gets flooded, it doesn't help much.

Wonderful to hear.
You know, I realize and fully understand many people thinking, "oh,
it's
another hurricane, we can ride it out" and then getting stuck.  But
even so,
why wouldn't they have a stash - like the Mormons(I think) who keep
a year's
supply of stuff on hand.

The first I'd think about would be my cats.  I wouldn't want to put
them
through it.  And I wouldn't go anywhere without them. (which means
I need to
get another carrier or two) But I would have a stock of cat food
and water
for them as well as other necessities for myself, if I were
undecided about
leaving.

Bless that doctor for staying with those animals.
