When we announced we were retiring and moving to FL a few folks raised the weather issues but my reply was please tell me an area where there are no severe weather issues. We even once had a tornado about a half mile from our house in 1979 which yes was very rare for CT. Been through ice storms, blizzards and even hurricanes up north but I am not about to let them dictate where I can live. Ok off my soap box.

Having said all that you need to keep in mid that TV is some 60 odd miles from either coast. That will have an impact on any wind from a hurricane by the time it reaches here. Not sure how we stand as far as tornado activity as compared to other parts of the country.
