I always take for granted being able to just drink the tap water as is. I can't imagine keeping plastic bottle water at home.

You won't have tap water, safe or otherwise, after a hurricane.

I have a stainless ibc that was formerly for transporting kombucha that I keep as emergency water storage which is not something people would normally have but if I didnt have that I'd probably find some other containers to serve the same purpose. Any hurricane here would also be a historical first.
