This assumes that people even make the connection between the power being out and the garage door not opening, at least until it's too late. I think my Carl Sagan quote addresses this.
Perhaps we need to add another alert to EAS/WEA, the GDA. Garage Door Watch. This alert would instruct people, in advance of a possible evacuation, to open their garage doors and move their car out while they still have power.
