Cars during disasters...

I want everyone safe and well in times of a crisis. I also know that a common complaint about electric cars is their alleged lack of power during a hurricane or other such disaster. I have found the following two articles interesting (there are many more!) that when a known event is approaching (hurricane), all the fuel in a large area is sold out and unavailable. Electricity, however, is completely available right up until something causes the grid to fail. 

Check out the first two article I was able to find on the topic:
