No I remember Charley but what people forget is just how big Florida is my 
home is on the far west side of Orlando and the storm went through the far 
east side, think the edge of the eye came within about 20 miles of our 
house but was a rather compact storm. We lost some foliage but since we had 
out roof replaced a couple of years ago  with nails rather than staples it 
came through fine.

Doesn't say the next one wouldn't come right over our house but probability 
is slim.

As to heat, I grew up in south Florida before a/c was common (took a lot of 
showers and often went to bed wet). Of course on the coast the temperature 
rarely got out of the 80s. Does get up in the mid-90s commonly here from 15 
June to 15 September. Do tolerate heat a lot better than cold but are about 
eight hours a day in the summer when I do not want to be out in the garage. 
That leaves 16.
