It is nice to know you are ok.
I find it amazing that in a country that gets major hurricanes, there is no readily available survival guide. The local authorities supply it as a matter of course in the north of Australia. But of course, evacuating from our north west is an entirely different kettle of sand to that of driving up country from NOLA or Houston to somewhere relatively safe. You die in the country not very far out from our cyclone-prone habitation areas. So survival is an essential skill. We dont have enough emergency services to go look for everyone :D We also dont have to evacuate around 2m people!
