Florida will almost certainly be hit be a tropical storm or hurricane in the future, perhaps even this year. But it is impossible to say when or when in the state it will hit. The only active Atlantic hurricane at this time, Irene, is not expected to hit Florida.
Some notable tropical storms that have hit Florida include Hurricane Andrew in 1992, Hurricane Irma in 2017, and Hurricane Michael in 2018. Florida is prone to hurricanes and tropical storms due to its location in the Atlantic basin.
None, in fact no Hurricanes made landfall in the entire U.S. in 2010. The state was however hit by 1 weak tropical storm.
It was a very quiet year in the Atlantic Basin, and even less eventful in Florida. Claudette was the only system that hit Florida, coming ashore on the Florida Panhandle as a weak tropical storm, doing little damage and dropping heavy rain.
Sandy formed on October 22 as Tropical Depression Eighteen and became Tropical Storm Sandy a few hours later. The storm did not hit land until October 24, when it struck Jamaica as a category 1 hurricane.

The last known tornadoes to hit Florida occurred during the landfall of tropical storm Fay. Fay was quite powerful for a tropical storm. Damaging winds, torrential rain and incredible flooding were other effects of the storm. Though it has now calmed to an extra-tropical depression, the damage is quite excessive.

Hurricane Hanna is now a Tropical Storm and is currently offshore, and it does not look like it will hit Florida: http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/storm_graphics/AT08/refresh/AL0808W5+gif144212W_sm.gif Hurrican Ike is headed towards Florida and IF it hits Florida at all, it will be late Tuesday or early Wednesday: http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/storm_graphics/AT09/refresh/AL0908W5+gif144313W_sm.gif Hurricane Hanna is now a Tropical Storm and is currently offshore, and it does not look like it will hit Florida: http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/storm_graphics/AT08/refresh/AL0808W5+gif144212W_sm.gif Hurrican Ike is headed towards Florida and IF it hits Florida at all, it will be late Tuesday or early Wednesday: It looks like they will hit Florida but just around the panhandle http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/storm_graphics/AT09/refresh/AL0908W5+gif144313W_sm.gif
The prairie provinces were hardest hit by depression.
Hurricane Wilma started out as a small tropical depression before strengthening and becoming a category 4 hurricane. On October 21, 1998 Hurricane Wilma hit landfall in Cozumel, Mexico.
Most of the time if a hurricane hits Texas and would aim towards North Texas, the hurricane would get as strong as a tropical storm. Examples are 2005 when Category 3 Hurricane Rita hit SE Texas, it downgraded to a tropical depression once it reached the Ark-La-Tex area. In 2008, Category 2 Hurricane Ike hit and downgraded to a tropical storm. In 2010 with Tropical Storm Hermine, Dallas was hard hit with the remnants. It would have to depend on the climate if it's warm enough to maintain its strength on land or cooler that it would downgrade it dramatically.
