If I thought it was very dangerous to stay I'd be gone by now. (Heck, driving the rotaries here is dangerous.) I have a whole house generator, because I've lived through hurricanes and understand the effects that can linger. I'm also here because my skills as a volunteer may be needed after the storm. Rather than fuss do something useful to help your neighbors and our community.

I'm trying to be useful by warning people not to be lulled into a comfort zone because your house is built to some standard. That is not a reason to stay. Also to counter some posters irresponsible advice of not to worry - won't happen here. What if it does. Just because it didn't since you have been here doesn't mean it won't. Folks pay attention to the experts. And by the way so far they have not said to evacuate our area. FYI I am not there. Left in May. But if I was there I would have left. Why would I want to put myself in harms way. Every time I do lately I get hurt. And if tornados is the concern (and I agree) not a single house in The Villages is safe. Not even those tin strips on the roof rafters can withstand that kind of force.
