Weather Underground and Storm Tracker Apps are the best ! we head down tomorrow have had several trips with Trop Storms it make the parks pretty empty, We just had one here in SC a few weeks agoCan anyone share a good source for FL weather, preferably someone I could follow on Facebook? An app would be nice too.
As much as I love the packing process for Disney, I've been absolutely swamped at work and haven't had any time for it. At a little over 2 weeks out, I normally have a decent pile going on the guest bed! I just have felt stressed out and exhausted instead of excited. Finally got a Target run in this morning for supplies and am starting to feel the excitement creeping back in!
Us too arriving tomorrow morning at 9:20amWeather Underground and Storm Tracker Apps are the best ! we head down tomorrow have had several trips with Trop Storms it make the parks pretty empty, We just had one here in SC a few weeks ago

Yes, let’s push it west. We are flying StL to MCO due to arrive at 2pm on Wednesday. I am very concerned we will be diverted Elsawhere (do you see what I did there?) Adventure awaits!Supposed to arrive Monday. I’m trying to stay as positive as possible. I can handle a storm. I just want to know my flight won’t be impacted.
we asked her to bring summer back. Not bring us a hurricane!Yes, let’s push it west. We are flying StL to MCO due to arrive at 2pm on Wednesday. I am very concerned we will be diverted Elsawhere (do you see what I did there?) Adventure awaits!
Okay, first of all know that you are NOT alone in your anxiety; personally, I go through spates when I am right there with you.I have gone from really excited to fearing the worst about crowds for our trip next week. Was excited when they were doing the significantly early entry with ride access before park open. Then within the last week or so, it has gone back to more normal rope drop procedures at at least 3 of the 4 parks. I figured that was in anticipation of likely starting the new early entry for resort guests on or about July 1st. But today’s release that this will begin on October 1st, and the photos of the barricades being put in place to manage entry crowds this coming week at the MK, and I am now seeing myself in a NYE type of crowd on Sunday for the 4th but without the normal super long summer hours and FP+
I’m also worried that if we take our midday break back at the hotel on Sunday, that we won’t be able to get back in during the late afternoon because of all the Park Hoppers that will stream in after 2:00, rendering our Park Pass reservation mostly useless.
Somebody talk me down from the ledge.
If I could go early, I'd be there right now.Leaving tomorow instead of Friday. I couldn't wait.
Last minute arrivals are always welcome! How's the trip going so far?I am so late to this party! Why? We literally just booked this trip Right now!
My hubs called and said “hey they have a room at Riviera 7/2-5. Should we go?“
me: Ummm…why not
airfare
dog sitter
airport transfers
We were just there last month and had a fabulous trip so we literally plan to sit by the pool, explore and you bet I will be seeing Happily Ever After and the new Epcot Fireworks!!
I kind of like the 30 hour Countdown! Since 2007 we have only stayed at the Poly so this will be new adventure!

Thanks for the tips! I was looking at The Weather Channel a few minutes ago, and (speaking as a Houston resident who is familiar with this kind of weather), Elsa doesn't look too bad as hurricanes go. Moving pretty quickly, winds aren't that high, rain could definitely be WAAAAY worse. I'm not for an instant suggesting it won't impact our group who are there already or are flying in and out, but it's not going to shut down the parks (outdoor rides yes, entire park, no). The temps are actually going to be a bit cooler as a result, too.Weather Underground and Storm Tracker Apps are the best ! we head down tomorrow have had several trips with Trop Storms it make the parks pretty empty, We just had one here in SC a few weeks ago
Hard to decide which part of that trip will be more magical.We are staying at Saratoga Springs July 26-31. Rescheduled from last summer.
We are actually flying to FL on 7/22 to stay with my parents first; I haven’t seen them in 2 years due to the Pandemic, so it’s a special trip.
