You’re failing to account for the CMs that also need a place to sleep as they cannot go home while there on storm duty thoughI agree with @Vacationeer - no one is checking in today (or probably tomorrow) - so rooms that the CM’s saw as ‘booked’ yesterday will be empty tomorrow night.
I feel certain they will have room for your family at their current hotel until the storm has passed.
I can tell you that in the months leading up to this week/ next week WDW was booked solid. Now lots of people have canceled or delayed their trips until the storm has passed. Even if only 5-10% of people canceled or delayed, that frees up some space at each resort as they hours go by.
Keep us posted on how it goes for them!
You must have missed the concrete walls around Bay Lake resorts.
The concrete 6 inch wall?
Some might mistake it as a fence and ropes, taller than 6 inches.

Am I? And how, exactly would you know if I failed to account for the CMs who can’t leave while in storm duty? Did you see my scratch sheet of paper on which I did my exact, complex calculations using the very detailed data Disney just sent me on their daily average WL check in/ check out numbers and hurricane CM plan - just so I could make this encouraging post where I state that I feel Disney won’t send a family out into a dangerous storm but instead feel like they would find a place for them to sleep safely until it passes?

Yes! We had a lovely sunrise this morning and I was lost in a daydream admiring the beauty. It's hard to imagine just a few states away complete destruction is impending for millions.

I'm in my room in AK lodge. Some observations regarding WDW prep I noticed on the way over.
- As many as busses could be parked at MK depot and TTC
- Campers, presumably from Ft. Wilderness parked together in TTC lot near the trams
- Security parked in front of MK bus depot entrance and AK main entrance
- Some animals still out in Savannah at AK lodge. I assumed they would all be in enclosures.

Do they still have furniture on the balcony at AKL? Or have they removed it/asked you to bring it in?

Two chairs and a table. I probably would have thought to bring them in myself as the storm gets stronger.
What's the food situation like at the resort?
