It varies from person to person. For me it means little chance of
hurricanes. However I know families from Florida who spend the entire
summer in the Bahama Islands and are still around to talk about it.

The people who live in Florida think the Bahamas is too cold in the
non-hurricane season. Plus I think a lot of them are power boat
people and they can get there and back a lot quicker.

In the winter instead of hurricanes you have northers which make the
Gulf Stream at best uncomfortable and worst unsafe. So you may have
wind blowing from the north for a considerable time which makes any
kind of restricted time frame much more of a problem. Plus you have
to be ready to GO when the wind clocks around to the south because it
may not be there for very long. IOW the windows may be smaller.
