I did from 2015-2018. I left last August and I now teach high school here in town.

Very respectable

Magic Kingdom Closed Spiel for Hurricane Dorian

The ship would be fully staffed. And I've witnessed what PAYING passengers can do.

I'm here for all that you are serving right now!!!

 

[Da Bird is Da Word]

En route to I-75 S and Orlando-bound from there. I’ll let y’all know how it goes

This used to be a good thread on hurricane updates....

If it keeps going NW could it end up hitting FL?

Keep watching weather updates. It could shift its path. At this point, looks like it is just gliding along the coast. But that could very well change.

I’m in Indiana but was just curious.

Saw a meme recently that describes hurricanes very well.

"Waiting on a hurricane is like being stalked by a turtle..."

That is pretty much it. You don't really know what path it is going to take.

Grand Bahama island... After (top) and before (bottom). As you can see, most of it's underwater.

I cant believe it. So tragic.

It's booking it.

 

[LuvWDW2]

Just left Epcot. Had a great dinner at Tokyo Dining. Sun is shining brightly, winds probably around 15-20 mph sustained.

CSR convention center has movies and popcorn until 10:30pm or so for those staying there (we’re in Gran Destino).

 

[disney4life2008]

Expect lots of locals in the parks Wednesday and Thursday. Ucf does not open back up until Friday.

 

[LAKid53]

The videos and photos of the damage to the Abaco Islands are heartbreaking to see. Areas still under water. Many look like an F5 went through.

Just a reminder. Please stay on topic with Dorian and specifically it’s impact to WDW. Many people are looking to this thread as an informational resource. Thanks

Hey guys , it says Magic Kingdom EMH hours for tomorrow is 10pm to 12am. But are they still doing Extra Extra Magic Hours opening at 7am? My understanding is all the parks open at 7am (and Hollywood Studios 6am) for the duration of my trip. Has the hurricane effected these hours?

No morning EMHs due to logistics of reopening the parks after a hurricane closure.

Oh, ok. DisneyTouristBlog spoke very highly of the Extra Extra Magic Morning hours, saying all the rides were virtual walkons, so hopefully they kick back in on Thursday or Friday. Thanks for the clarification!
