I used to feel the same way until a Squall traveling 40mph with 85mph winds lasting only 10min dragged my boat and others and caused damage. 

I would think with the storm surge related to hurricanes a mooring may be fine but I would extend your mooring lines.

All:

Not to unduly excite everyone, but in the event of a direct hit  
(doubtful the case here) where do you feel your boat would be safer:   
in a slip, on a mooring, or out of the water?
I lean towards on a mooring because there's less 'things' to fly about  
and hit the boat.  On land she'd be on jackstands; more likely lying  
next to them after the storm passed.
