I have lived in central Florida for over 50 years and lived through lots of hits and close calls. Depending on where the hurricane enters the state, the damage and power outages differ. The year Florida took four direct hits, the Orlando area was out of power for weeks. Tampa area was not. Power outages wreck havoc on ones lives in Florida since hurricane season is during the hot months. I stand by my statement. Be prepared. Go Or stay behind. Your choice. People with pets need to know where they are welcome. Most shelters will not allow animals.
