Do people cover windows in prep for hurricanes or is TV too far inland to worry about such things.

Tornado alley Nebraskan is just freaking out in advance.
No need to cover your windows during storms. One, we are too far inland. Two, building codes were enhanced 20 years ago. All windows are rated to withstand high winds. However, before a storm, you and your neighbors need to bring inside anything that the wind might pick up and blow around.
