Natural disasters and your PM

I've read a lot of threads that list what to look for in a property manager. What they take care of and how they take care of it basically. There isn't a whole lot that I have found on how PM's and their owners handle natural disasters...

For example.... I live/rent on the pan handle. Is it common for a PM to take care of boarding up windows if a hurricane is incoming? or does that rest completely on the property owner?

What about the aftermath for w/e disaster it may be? (earthquake/tornado/flooding etc)

I have 2 rentals at the moment and am looking to grow but trying to juggle damage assessment for 10-15+ rentals (especially when I might have damage to my own home) after a hurricane seems like it would be a nightmare.

Anyone out there that has experience managing scenarios like this?
