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

I agree generally with the other answers here. For winds, try to get a house with hip roof all the way around (no gables), block and stucco will be better than stick built and sided. Facing direction will make no difference for winds but makes a difference for the sun - try to get a house with the lanai facing east if you can because you will get a nice warming sun in the cool mornings and shade in the hot afternoons.
