News Major Hurricane Dorian impacts to Walt Disney World 2019

[tribbleorlfl]

Good news.

For guests, sure. For the CMs they "convinced" to stay, they'll be getting out of work just as the strongest winds and rain come through.

Not to add fuel but many of the cms use public transportation so once they are out of the confines of Disney it's a whole other world on the west side

Projected winds tonight of 20-25 mph with rain between 1 and 2 inches.

But wait! There's more...

Both storms are not projected to be going near Florida.

Both storms are not projected to be going near Florida.

That means we should probably be concerned about them.

I didn't say (or mean to imply) they were. Just that there are more storms brewing in the Atlantic basin; it's quite busy right now.

Curious why Blizzard Beach will remain closed while all other parks, including Typhoon Lagoon will open. BB was closed Sunday, Monday and today, too.

Scheduled to be closed for refurbishment. Guess Disney decided to start early with the approach of Dorian.

Blizzard Beach closing for extended refurbishment this year with enhancements coming

I live in Orlando and as of 930pm, it is nothing happening outside.

 

[Da Bird is Da Word]

Halfway thru my trip, just crossed into Florida and am 3 hours away from Orlando. Weather has been beautiful the whole way. Hope everyone in the storm path stays safe.

You’ll be arriving in rain bands with 20-30 mph winds from Dorian in the Orlando area soon. Stay safe! Gone tomorrow.

It is indeed raining at CSR now

Both storms are not projected to be going near Florida.

Those may not be the ones to worry about.

Left side of it is right on top of me now...

party time

 

[Sabretooth47]

Started raining here at AS Movies about 915. No wind to speak of at the moment. Just a light breeze right now (10:00pm)

 

[Mainahman]

Drinking a few for you guys now! Stay safe!

 

[Allyp]

The rain finally moved into my part of Orlando (Windermere) about an hour ago, it sounds nice. Here's hoping future squalls don't get too gusty. Stay safe tonight everyone!

Same here. Looks like the gusts aren’t too gusty yet and power is still on, but I do have coworkers in other parts of Orlando that already had lights flickering. My office also is going to be open tomorrow but depending how fast this moves through the night, I may just work from home. Driving through this weather is a nightmare on i4.

One article about the devastation on Grand Bahama and Abaco:

‘Total devastation’: At least 7 dead as Hurricane Dorian parks itself over the Bahamas, pounding island nation and trapping residents

Relief officials reported scenes of utter ruin Tuesday in parts of the Bahamas and rushed to deal with an unfolding humanitarian crisis in the wake of Hurricane Dorian, the most powerful storm on record ever to hit the islands.
