I'm inland Florida, so here are my tips.
Are you near a river that floods? Find out, because inland river flooding is a PITA. Even if you don't get hit, if upriver gets hit, you're going to be hurting.
Inland, you're going to be worried mainly about wind and trees falling, so structure damage and losing power.
This is a tropical storm, so expect several days of really hot, really sunny days after a big wind goes through. The other response covers most of what you need, but the major thing missing is ways of getting cool. Most modern buildings are built with the expectation of A/C, so they turn into ovens without it.
So here's my recommended list:
Avoid candles. It's a heat source that is just going to be making your life miserable.
I'm in Florida, so I got recommendations for fans and lights.
This is an excellent fan, runs on 6 D batteries. Plus it has a light built in. https://www.amazon.com/O2COOL-Portable-Lighting-Accessories-3-Adjustable/dp/B01H583DJ4
For lights, something like this is good: https://www.amazon.com/Etekcity-Portable-Camping-Lantern-Batteries/dp/B01C5QSENQ
They run off AA batteries. They will light up half a room, easily. And they are easy start: just lift the handle, and they turn on.
Another option for lighting are those battery operated pillar candles. They run on a timer, so 6 on, 18 off. You can set them to turn on at dark and they can run every evening. These are not good for reading, but great for ambience and for getting around the house at night (bathroom, etc). They are very popular around Xmas, and you can usually get them pretty cheap.
There are limited options to deal with the heat, especially when trying to sleep. I'm in the north and think it sucks in the upper 80's. You guys further south must really be suffering. So this is what I was able to put together.
If it's not too humid you can snag yourself and your family Arctic Ties. I've used these before and, when tied around your neck after absorbing water, they really do help. You can also use things like wet handkerchiefs, spray bottles, and even get yourself a hand fan.
Alternately, you could try dampening a top sheet and laying under that if it's dry enough to evaporate. Also, if there's a breeze, supposedly hanging a wet sheet a little ways in front of the window will help, though I can't vouch for that one personally.
Lastly, if you have a finished underground basement, check on what the temp is like down there. Even partial submergence underground and the fact that heat rises will likely keep it cooler than the first or second floor.
Take a look at adding Camp Fans into the mix. They'll chew through some batteries, but you can bulk up on those ahead of time and make it through without needing major investments. You can also look at oddball solutions like the Chillow (I have no idea if this works well or not)
If you're a do-it-yourself kind of guy, Survival Life has some instructions to a solar powered air conditioner that supposedly outputs air at 65-40 degrees depending on the water temp. Add some ice to that and it could give some nice windows of tolerable temperatures so long as it has power.
Here you're looking at either/both generators and/or solar. Solar won't do as much if it's solid cloud cover unless you drop some serious dollars on a battery wall, but once that's over you could at least potentially have some power during the day and could charge devices (battery chargers?) to help you get through the night.
I just used the below fan all weekend and it helped tremendously. Was quiet on low setting so my wife didn’t even know I had it on me till she moved in front of it in the morning. The D batteries mean it is very heavy so for car camping only. I’m still on my first set of batteries and has been out a few times in a year and they still work.

I use this one https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B013BOC6VC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and this one https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01H583DJ4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 . The cheaper one works just as well, it just doesn't have a light on it.
