Did you live in a different area?
The last major hurricane to make landfall in Tampa/St. Pete was in 1921. Tampa/ St. Pete would be underwater if anything Cat2 or higher were to make a direct hit.

Yes I did live elsewhere, and I was underwater a few times.
The fact that it's been nearly 100 years since a direct hit in TB gave me confidence to live here as opposed to other coastal locations in the state.When the Weather Channel makes a documentary specifically about my town, then I'll reconsider.
I'm thinking about when they planned to do a "It could happen tomorrow" segment on a Cat 5 hitting NOLA, then it happened. They changed it to a Cat 3 hitting NYC, and then that happened later on.That said, there is a certain amount of preparedness readiment I do between June and November.
The fact remains that certain areas of the US have a level of natural disaster risk no matter what.
California - Earthquakes
Middle America - Tornadoes
Gulf Coast/East Coast - HurricanesI'm willing to chance it for a milder year-round climate. It's ok if there are people who disagree.

We just did the outdoor Farmers's Museum in Cooperstown, NY. Nineteen degrees here.

After months of it, you're no longer jealous of it, I assure you.

Been watching that a lot with the kids here.

My kids are averaging just a hair under once a day since we bought it on iTunes. Pretty much kills their allowed TV time though.

No Typhoons here but lots of hurricanes for those of us out east and tornadoes for the ones in the middle.

I miss snow so much. I am originally from Maine. I moved to Washington with the U.S.Navy and stayed here because I married my wife. Washington doesn't snow a whole lot where I am.

What part of Maine? I grew up in Buffalo but vacationed in Bar Harbor much of my youth.
