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.
Without the availability of a corner lot house that has windows on 3 sides and met our location parameters, our priority became interior illumination by natural light, resulting in our purchase of a house facing west that has the lanai facing east. This orientation gives us great ambient lighting throughout the daylight hours, making it “bright and cheerful” inside the house.
