Many people have backup generators hooked up to natural gas. Reading the article, it sounds like that is not as reliable in the scenario described.

If you don’t have it stored on your property, when you really need it, you might be able to get any. Prepperthink.
It all depends on the design of the system. Here in the Pacific Northwest we have gas storage sites strategically located within the grid. These sites are designed to maintain the required pressure of the system and inject additional gas into the grid as needed.
My understanding is that the designers of the system in use in Texas did not anticipate the need and consequently did not build in this redundancy.
