Do you make certain preparations after listening to severe weather conditions in the forecast?

I was in New Jersey when hurricane Sandy hit. We did some major prep work before-hand to protect the house and did some shopping to sustain us through post-hurricane days. I have also been in an ice-storm in Montreal, Canada, where we were stuck at home for a whole week, so a little preparation would have come in very handy, but we still managed to make the most of the adverse condition.
In the recent heat wave in Melbourne, we ate a lot of watermelon to keep hydrated along with drinking water, so shopping in the early hours of every morning was a great advantage.

Generally not. The only thing I may do is freeze some water if I know it's going to be a particularly hot day and we are planning to go to the beach.

No not really but I do stock up on water.

Where I live the most severe weather situation we're likely to have is a very hot day. If I know one is coming, I plan for it by planning to spend the day indoors or somewhere to cool down like a swimming pool. I also buy drinks with electrolytes in them to help us all stay hydrated.

The most extreme weather we tend to have is the heat... So I sometimes have a frozen hot water bottle and don't plan on leaving the house too often when it's crazy hot. Otherwise I don't really have many preparations.
