Except for Andrew in the early 90s, Florida hasn't had to deal with too many hurricanes since the 1960s. I grew up & went to college in Florida, and can only remember a few big storms that didn't do a whole lot of damage. The Carolinas and Virginia seem to get hit harder and more often. Plus the northeast part of Florida (Jacksonville, Daytona) rarely gets hit because the Gulf Stream is further away - the storms move up the coast before hitting Cape Fear. (I hope I'm not jinxing my Jax friends by saying that ...)
