One store says use porcelain tile, other says ceramic is ok with multiflex thinset, we live in south Louisiana
The ceramic with the thinset would work well for you.
Porcelain tile would be better outside as it doesn't absorb water. Tile is awsome outside!
Porcelian is what I use outside as a contractor. I don't even consider ceramic tile for exterior uses. I live in NE Texas and your area doesn't get as much cold weather as we do, but that's the primary reason for using porcelian over ceramic. Plus, the porcelian's color is through-and-through, which is good with heavy traffic use and possible chips. Ceramic tile has a thin coating over a clay base that is exposed when chipped. Well, I have to go now and see the Saints beat the Eagles! Good luck!
