11PM Advisory is out and is a slower later arriving solution. Positioning is mostly unchanged from the 8pm intermediate. The trend at this point is moving north.

The 11PM Track goes RIGHT over Galaxy's edge. (last point end on upper left is 90mph)

Florida doesn't do Contraflow (Reverse Laning). Coming in when everyone is going out is easy (and it allows support trucks like utility workers to stage easier).

If you are heading out, just use traffic apps, or considering using the backup state roads (or apps like Waze)

If it winds up heading more to south Florida, all the Orlando hotels will be FLOODED with evacuees, like they were for Irma. In that case the Disney or Universal Hotels are some of the best bets just because of the infrastructure there.

Yes, it does. Read the emergency declaration.

When you make decisions with $$$ in your eyes it's easy to forget simple logic such as, "Don't rush a partial opening of a new land in WDW so it debuts in the middle of hurricane season." Lots of money on the line here if people start canceling or severely limiting their plans to see SWGE this weekend...and possibly Chapek's butt? (Not likely, but one could dream.)

Tells me it's time to pucker up, and hit the ATM for $13 box lunches at the resorts.
$6.00 during Irma. Not packaged very prettily, but everything was fresh and tasty, and very much appreciated during lockdown. We bought 3, if I recall.

ETA - It also came with a small bottle of water. Dasani unfortunately.

We arrive on Saturday arvo from Australia, from one extreme to another. Was thinking of staying at Dallas but the wife is so keen for Disney, she has me taking a spoonful of cement to harden up.
