And if my memory serves me correctly. The one high liner I spoke to said they drive all night from CA. And I believe in the end weren’t really needed
Based on the hole in Jurassic Parks building, the flooded Hulk coaster, and hearing Velocicoaster is also flooded, I can't imagine UO opening tomorrow.
I'd suggest that if you don't have the means to evacuate, you shouldn't live in a potential storm surge zone.
Is it open my kids burned through most of the food they had.I'm very tempted to walk over to the Ocoee Waffle House and have a traditional Floridian post-Hurricane meal.
But we have plenty of food at home, and don't feel right potentially taking away someone else's meal who needs it.
Yeah, I had been hearing the situation was more serious at Uni.
Except this was once in a lifetime event. If that's the rationale, people shouldn't live in Tornado Alley.
I am of the opinion people shouldn't live in Tornado alley...
As climate change worsens, these storms will only get worse. Florida, Tornado Alley... it's not gonna be good times.
Unfortunately the low areas tend to be the cheap areas because they are probe to flood.I'd suggest that if you don't have the means to evacuate, you shouldn't live in a potential storm surge zone.
A Cat 4 slamming into Florida seems to happen more often than once in a lifetime. In my lifetime, there have been 6 of them.Except this was once in a lifetime event. If that's the rationale, people shouldn't live in Tornado Alley.
In tornado alley everything is above ground, although the ground doesnt make it hard to bury electrical (not shallow shale or anything). We have areas that yearly go down due to ice, or every few years from tornadoes and we always build back above ground. Ive always wondered the same thing. Since every year the same sections are without power or the poles kill someone when it falls on their car.After each hurricane hitting the state's capital since Kate in 1985, we've had discussions about burying power lines. But the cost is exorbitant and the City would have to pass the cost on to each utility customer...for several years. No one demanded their bill go up 5% to 10% every month to pay for it.
Yet a significant amount of food is grown in that part of the country.

I’m watching the news and they keep showing destroyed mobile home parks, another area likely to be full of people who can’t afford to evacuate.
I can’t imagine living in a mobile home in a hurricane area but if that’s all you can afford that’s all you can afford.
I believe it is. Our area has power and was mostly spared from flooding. It's on SR50 and Bluford.Is it open my kids burned through most of the food they had.

Never going on a WDW or Florida trip with you.I was at Coronado for both Irma and Dorian … in an RV in Fort Pierce for Ian. (You guess which was a tougher ride. )
News on reopening -
I think you are right. The first time people heed the news and either get all the supplies and hunker down or leave. Then its a little wind or it moves direction and nothing happens. After a few times of hearing "you need to leave or you wont survive" and nothing happens or you lose a shingle. Its human nature to not worry and underestimate mother nature. People need to remember, that no matter how many times they get it wrong.. they only have to be right once, for it to be tragic.You see this on the news after every storm, “we survived (insert storm name) so we thought we’d be fine this time too”.
I think it’s human nature, the more times we do something the more comfortable we get with it.
