If there is room if the house that has a lot of windows, I would move them in there. Flower may trigger & they might stretch, but they can always be brought back to veg.
Sorry to hear about your area. I have seen some videos sent to me with floods everywhere. I know at least 1 family that’s been on their roof to evade the floods. As far as power being restored, I’m not so sure it’s happening any time soon.
I can’t imagine how the outdoor guerrilla grows are taking this hit.

It could be days before your power is restored.........depending on where you live.
If you live near Port Charlotte and Ft. Myers........you're fucked.

Is ambient lighting from closed blinds enough ? I don’t wanna give out my grow but I want to keep these girls alive at least. 2 months down the drain would drag

Yeah I was blessed we didn’t get hit like them but winds were still crazy. Just lost power and some trees were falling over. Anybody growing outdoors was for surely fucked though.

I'd keep the blinds open. Try and block the plants from the window if privacy is a concern
You just need to light the room with sunshine. Dont worry about the sun shining directly on the plant.

Probably not.
Keep them in a window, if they flip to flower, just change your light schedule to 12/12 instead of trying to reveg them.

Yep, Get 'em near as much natural light as possible. They can last a few days and not shift to flowering.
I would Use a door mirror or two to help redirect the light towards your plants and if you’re worried about the privacy remember if you were outside looking up at the window if your Louvers are slightly down on the inside you won’t be able to see them looking up but the light will come in but if you’re looking down into the window that will not work this is a problem I’ve been trying to forgive out case I end up with same problem minus the privacy

No you don't. People lose everything in these storms, houses, cars, crops, livestock and even their lives. Having lived where both of these are common I can tell you for sure, they are not fun at this level. I feel really bad for the growers down South that either lost everything or rushed to an early harvest. It's getting to us tomorrow but only as a few days of rain and some moderate wind but our area will likely lose power from downed trees. Hope everyone stayed safe during this thing.

You only need to give your plants 1-2 hours of light in the middle of the night to keep them in veg. It takes very minimal light to do it.
