It started after Frances, charley and Jeanne in 2004 then Wilma unexpectedly wrecking shite in 2005. Buried lines, bolstered poles and shite like that. Also every gas station now has back up generators so they stay up and running.

It started after Homestead got wiped off the map by Andrew.

Yep. The building codes definitely changed after Andrew. But many of the power grid upgrades didn’t happen until after the 04 and 05 hurricanes. People were without power for weeks in Palm Beach and Martin Counties. FP&L HQ is in jupiter so they snapped into action because some of the big exes lost power for over a week
