Something to note for Food & Wine Today...
Today is CM preview for Food & Wine since it opens tomorrow officially. CMs can get their usual # of guests in free today without deducting from their annual allowance on their passes.
So, you may see a spike in attendance from that, too.

The crane is for SE . . .
Also, nearly every Future World pavilion has had some effect from Jeanne. One report says that nearly every pavilion has some sort of "leak" or "flood."

No, I think what I posted seems to be the more plausible explanation.
Saw this posted at miceage about the cranes at Epcot. So, take it as you will.
But Jeanne did manage to succeed where Charley and Frances did not, in that one building did finally succumb to the onslaught of wind and rain: the Living Seas pavilion at Epcot. The Living Seas was the only facility to not reopen the day after Jeanne, and Disney announced it would stay closed until next weekend. Officially, details were not given out. However, the large number of workers spotted on the roof the next day gave testament to a likely reason: roof damage, possibly in conjunction with water damage seeping in from gaps in the ceiling. This remains speculation, but the irony would be delicious, if true. The only exhibit in all of Disney World damaged by water would be the facility dedicated to water!

And when I first saw the name of this thread, I thought it was actually happening....

I feel your pain. . .
(At least the wand isn't PERMANENT "damage". . . )

Grizz-- do you know when the wand will go if it's isnt PERMANENT?
I hate that dumb wand. It looks pretty bad.

I was told last night that it will be there "forever." Forever means, of course, unless there is a miracle.Mickeyrulz said:
Years ago (from speculation, nothing official), I heard the wand would be down in the next couple of years. Maps and commercials show SE without it. I hope for the latter, but sadly expect the former.

seas has been leaking for a while, I remember in April they had to close it because it was leaking...

It's really not as bad as you may think it is. Epcot just went through THREE hurricanes in the last few weeks - and it has done extremely well considering the eye of a major hurricane practically went through it just a few days ago. The wand, however, will be there.Austin1 said:so how long is it going to take to fix all these "little problems" form the hurricane? were going down on the 14th i hope the crane is gone by then :brick: sigh...i hate refurbs

I just got home from work and while driving down the Ocesola Parkway through disney, I saw a yellow crane exactly like the one that was behind SSE on wed leaving disney. I'm 99% sure this was the same one and the crane is now gone.
