Lived in Fla. since 1953 and saw quite a few hurricanes in S. Fla. Up here it seems less vulnerable to hurricanes, and we also have underground power. I sold my generator before moving here. During power outages down there the generator was fine as long as you had gas, but if you ran it at night to keep the refrigerator working you'd keep the whole neighborhood awake. Honda makes the most quiet generators but costs more than double what you'd pay at Home Depot. I'd suggest a Honda, but only big enough to run the refrigerator, a fan and a few lights. Cook on the BBQ for all meals.
