Virtually all of Florida is in a Special Wind Region (Hurricane Zone).
The standard drawings posted online are wrong for use there.
Also, the standard drawings are outdated -- they use the
TAI-222-G standard, while the current is TIA-222-H and has
been since Jan 2018.

To be as storm-proof as practical I'd suggest hiring a PE
to design your footings, guys and anchors to fit your
local conditions.
