I doubt natural gas troubles upon a storm, and have NEVER seen a report
like that!

Having a variety of back ups is good.

main generator preferably on natural gas. along with a decent sized
inverter to convert 12 volts from vehicle to 120 plus some 12 volt
bulbs, home depot sells 40 watt 12 volt bulbs, put in trouble light
with adapter cord to converty 120 to 12 volt battery clips.
flashlights, batteries, hand crank radio, wood stove or fireplace with
some firewood. and a supply of bottled water. power failures can cause
water shortages. in hot areas a smnall window AC unit can provide comfy
shared space if needed where even a large generator might have trouble
running a whole house AC
