Hurricane season in Miami-Dade and Broward is six months long, and the electrical damage it causes usually does not come from the wind. It comes from surges when the grid flickers, from water in boxes that were never sealed, and from generators connected the wrong way.
Start with surge protection. A whole-home surge protector mounted at the panel absorbs the spikes that ride in on the service line when power comes and goes during a storm. It protects the AC, the refrigerator, and every electronic device in the house for a fraction of the cost of replacing one of them.
Next, the generator. If you own a portable generator, the safe way to use it is a manual transfer switch or an interlock kit with an inlet box, so the house is isolated from the grid while the generator runs. Never backfeed through a dryer outlet: it is illegal, it can kill a line worker, and it can destroy the generator when the grid returns. A standby generator with an automatic transfer switch takes the decision out of your hands entirely.
Walk the outside of the house. Every exterior outlet, light, and AC disconnect should be in a weatherproof box with a sealed cover. Corroded boxes and cracked covers let water in, and water plus electricity is how outlets and disconnects fail during the first big rain.
After a storm, if the lights flicker, the panel hums, or anything smells hot, shut the main off and call. A quick safety inspection catches the damage the storm did quietly, before it becomes the problem that takes the house down.
