As a truss manufacturer in lower Alabama for 25 years, we shipped many systems into Florida. Over the years, the state’s standards improved greatly and inspections became incredibly strict. IIRC, trusses for beachfront properties had to be engineered to withstand 150 or 160 mph winds. I pray their diligence helps save homes.
I'm in Delray Beach, so right in line for a direct hit.
My house is 25 years old, and the building code back then was for 120 MPH ratings. I have an addition that I just built last year, and the code for that was 160 MPH.
I did at least upgrade all our doors/windows in the main house to impact doors/windows.
Last year when I was doing an exterior remodel (in Colorado) and deciding what kind of material to be used for the soffits I did a web search on the topic and found a paper from the University of Florida. It mentioned the improvements that have been made in Florida construction techniques and said that soffits are one area that (at the time) had room for improvement. They said that when storm winds blow, if a house has metal or vinyl soffits, this will be the first point of failure. So I opted for stuccoed soffits, which had their highest wind rating. (We don't get hurricanes or tornadoes here; but we get thunderstorm outflow winds and downbursts that can be impressive.)
