We are here right now just hoping it goes out to sea!
1) Irma is coming, and she is heading right toward us - or so they say.
2) WDW is already sending out notices to campground guests.
3) WDW is also asking for "Ride Out" team members. *
* WDW has already asked for CM Volunteers to "Ride Out" the hurricane. They are literally locked into an area (such as a resort). They try to comfort guests, make games for the kids, and keep guests as safe as possible. Lost of single CMs do this for the extra overtime money WDW pays them. I am sorry, but if a hurricane strikes, I want to be at home with the wife.
That's my thought since these models started to agree on a "Florida" hit. Only one of the current models shows it going somewhere other than right up Florida. It doesn't matter if it skirts the east or west coast or comes right up the middle, central Florida is going to be impacted.Well Irma is now a Cat 5. I think anywhere she decides to go, we will have some sort of impact here in Central FL.

Going to be an interesting next few days. We are leaving from Houston (yes, Hurricane Harvey town) tomorrow, have had reservations at Fort Wilderness (Sep 9-16) for months, then on to a week on Sanibel. We lucked out in Houston with no water in our house, but on the other side of our neighborhood folks had hip high water flooding, being closer to the bayou. Spent several days helping folks over there out, now prepping for our vacation, and Hurricane Irma rears her ugly head. Well, we'll give it a shot, we've got wheels if we need to pack up and head up to Canada for a while! Bringing enough bottled water for our trip duration anyway.

Nope . Looking like the weather.com forecast is for Irma to head north a bit west of Florida now . . . no good idea how that will impact things at Fort Wilderness, but we should be there by then. Guess we can always head northeast towards Georgia if they evacuate us. Oh, no notifications from DIS to us yet, either.You're having a bad month...
You're not JIM Cantore are you? Just being suspicious.
Whoever has the purple line needs to be beaten. Not only does it come close to home, they have it running over us, then backing up and doing it again.Well Irma is now a Cat 5. I think anywhere she decides to go, if anywhere in Fl, we will have some sort of impact here in Central FL.

I keep hoping Tripleb is posting more accurate information. For everyone's sake in Florida anyway.
