stuff snipped

If you are preparing for a hurricane and you have a well, you can get
by with less water storage capacity *if* you are sure that you will
have fuel for a generator sufficiently large enough to run your well
and booster pumps...

That's a good point. During one of the 10 year floods we get in my area,
the electricity failed, the generator wouldn't kick over and by the time I
got it sorted out, there was a foot of water in the basement. Since then
I've acquired a number of deep-cycle 12VDC batteries and marine pumps.
