I lived through this... I also lived through Andrew, Katrina, Irene, Francis, etc etc etc... Wilma was the absolute worst hurricane experience of my life. They called it a "cat 1" heading towards us.. when it hit.. it was easily cat 4-5... in my neighborhood not a single fence or screen survived.. I was almost murdered by a flying stop sign trying to get tree branches off my neighbors cars... and our power was out for almost 3 weeks after the storm. I can still remember sitting behind our town houses when the lights flickered back on around 9pm.... you'd think our neighborhood won the super bowl lol.. you could hear screams of joy a mile away.
Hurricane Wilma mainly hit us with cat 1 hurricane winds and look at the damage it did in dade and broward. We have yet to have a hurricane like Andrew. Let that sink in.
