On a practical note, be prepared to evacuate and take the cats with you.
One of my cats, Pillow Bob, was a rescue after the 1986 river flood in Guerneville, California -- the owners simply drove away as the river rose and left the cat there. He was found, weeks later, living in the woods, terrified and hungry, and we took him in. It should not have happened. Remember all those dead, lost, and suffering pets after Hurrivcane Katrina? That should not have happened either.
A cat can live in a crate for several days if given water and food, and allowed out on a collar and leash to do its business. Seriously, do not leave the pets behind.
If you mmust evacuate, Safe Travel products, along with herbs like Comfrey Root and Feverfew, are good allies, as mentioned above.
Psalms against storms:
Psalms 32
6 For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they shall not come nigh unto him.
Psalms 69
15 Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me. 16 Hear me, O LORD; for thy lovingkindness is good: turn unto me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.
Palms 144
Send thine hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters.
