It’s going to be nasty day all across the southeast tomorrow. Stay safe but keep on enjoying the magic. A stormy day at Disney is still better than a stormy day at home!

Saucy, try entire Eastern US tomorrow. I’m getting 8-12 inches up in WI, and the NE will be similarly clobbered. Good luck to anyone traveling tomorrow.

Well tomorrow is a good time for guests to get their chance at a mary poppins ride. Just open up an umbrella, put on some roller skates, and enjoy the ride. That is probably the closest any guests will be to getting a mary poppins ride any time soon.

Not much snow tomorrow here in New England but when it warms up they are saying 2” or more of rain. That will make a mess on top of the 10” of snow we got over the weekend.

I am flying into Orlando tomorrow evening….
Feeling a bit tense, hoping my flight makes it there!

I hope you have a safe trip. Its going to be a bit rough in Middle Georgia with 50-60 MPH winds and 4-8 inches of rain.

Thank you!
Just reviewed the current weather reports for my area and Orlando for the time period my flight is supposed to depart.
Just going to have the wing it….no pun intended.

You must not be very far from me. I live at the south end of the lake.

If you’re talking about Winnebago, no I’m in the Appleton area.

If you’re talking about Winnebago, no I’m in the Appleton area.

In the scheme of things, less than 50 miles is not very far.

How did you do earlier? The photos from PC and Marianna are reminiscent of a tropical cyclone.

Hearing reports of strong winds at MK right now. It's so strong that children are being carried away from their parents!

This is the damage from the line of storms that produced tornadoes in the Florida Panhandle earlier today.

I'm already hearing thunder in Horizons West. Stay alert and safe.

We're at Ft Wilderness Campground right now at 2:30 pm. Overcast and calm. Was windy earlier. Everything, including boats are operating normally.
