Look for products which have passed UL 90 uplift tests. Look also for products which are considered "cool" roofs to help reduce a/c costs.

Please use this website to investigate the various types of metal roofing. Find some systems you like and then contact their manufacturers regarding colors, corrosion resistance, and any other concerns you may have. Some manufacturers are using reflective pigment paints which, even in dark colors, reflect radiant heat. As a coalition of competing metal roofing manufacturers, we cannot suggest one product over another.

What is the difference between standing seam roofs and other metal roofs? Which is best to withstand Hurricane Force winds along the Gulf Coast?

Metal roofing comes in many types. There are exposed fastener "sheet" products, concealed fastener standing seam, and then several types of interlocking shake / shingle / tile products. Many of these products have passed 90 psf uplift tests. Check with the manufacturers. A good installer is also very important.
