Almost certainly!

Unusually long gaps in hurricane landfalls are hardly uncommon. No hurricane, of any strength, has made landfall anywhere in Florida since Wilma in 2005 (Hermine may change that if it organizes fast enough). Previously, there were no hurricane landfalls in the Miami area between Betsy in 1965 and Andrew in 1992. When I lived in the Miami area (during that gap), there was a premium on houses built before 1965, simply because they had been through a hurricane. People may have instinctively felt what was later proven after Andrew hit: the building code that should have prevented the damage was routinely subverted by contractors bribing inspectors.
