Wednesday early would be OK, Friday later will be fine

They seem to have rescinded the Fort Wilderness, Treehouse Villas, and Bungalows closure?

Hulk meet and greet was temporary. Hurricane back on.

They definitely are going to close the parks, operationally it wouldn't make sense with all the cancelations, call outs & blocked reservation windows.

I don't disagree. But "back in the day" anyone at WDW would have laughed at you if you had suggested a storm like this would close to the parks. I feel they are much, much more likely to close out of precaution now that they have been through a 4 month closure.

@wdwmagic you still mention Ian in your hurricane policy update.

What's the latest, parks operating as normal tomorrow ?

 

[DisneyfanMA]

We fly in on Sunday morning; Hopefully everything is reopened by then. Sad for those who are there this week; on the bright side, it does not look like it’ll be nearly as bad as Ian.

We moved our universal from thurs to sunday thanks to a quirk in our schedule and 1 extra off day at the end. It'd gonna be gorgeous sunday.

Yes but you may see some things gone to storage and other parts with extra tiedowns

 

[DisneyfanMA]

Sure, but the odds are incredibly low compared to September & October.

I'm supposed to be flying in on Thursday, I have a feeling I'm going to be delayed a day. Good thing my first park day was booked for Saturday and I have no reservations booked for Thursday or Friday.

November is historically the driest month here and it's rained (mostly a little) every day so far with washout potentially tomorrow afternoon and all Thursday. I'm annoyed but as long as we get in MK tomorrow I'm ok with it. We've had mostly sun since Saturday with 5 min sprinkles and 1 shower.

Man....we had water damage from Ian and just got everything fixed

Wait, Jersey Girl not there now for “Jersey week”?

Do rides like big thunder and splash mountain still run as long as no thunder ?

That means everything should be tic a boo for this one.
Bright side, bright side
