From my experience here, one never really knows where these hurricanes will eventually make landfall until they actually make landfall.
I've got a good generator that will run the entire house and well pumps, except the air conditioning. Never been more than three days without electric company power. But with the generator, it's a moot point. We've been lucky to have no property damage either. The biggest trouble is battening down the hatches before it hits and then cleaning up all of the tree debris that is on the ground afterwards.
We are still rebuiliding down here in the Keys from the last storm. Big Pine Key especially is a disaster area.Add in no more building permits down here after 2022 and you have a true cluster.

Especially those who evacuated The Keys to Homestead prior to Andrew!
