I've been in Florida for 19 years. The longest time we were ever without electric power was in 2004 when it was off for about 2 1/2 days on one occasion. Another time that same year, the power was off for about 1 day.
Since then, the electric companies have done a much better job of "hardening" their transmission facilities. Since 2004, I can only recall a couple of times where the electric was off for a few hours.
I would say that if you have a generator with enough fuel to last for 12 to 15 hours, it's very unlikely that you would ever need more.
