Kind of tangential, but take a look at building codes in the major Florida metros. They’re impressive and more prepared for a direct impact than anywhere else in the world. And I’m not just referring to Miami - it’s the one city I’m not very familiar with. Tampa got two storms last year and while damage was substantial and notable, those were the types of storms that simply wipe out Haiti or New Jersey. There is very little substance to my comment other than to share a point of pride for the state. The GP is correct in that if you’re not as familiar with the region it’s easy to forget how massive the state is.
