Welcome to the DIS!
Yes, I am finding no rooms with Florida resident rates for that same weekend - I don't think they are out yet.
But, 11/8 starts the Veteran's Day holiday weekend - the holiday is on Wed 11/11, so folks may be going for long weekends before the actual holiday or after it.
Epcot's Food and Wine Festival goes thru 11/16.
Christmas decorations will start appearing throughout the resorts & parks. The first Magic Kingdom Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Parties are 11/8, 11/10, 11/12 & 11/13.
The Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights at Hollywood Studios starts 11/6.
Free dining fills up rooms, as does Epcot Food and Wine and Veterans Day Weekend.We've gone to WDW in the "off season" in the past. Hard to believe all rooms full except AK and no ADRs available. Hopefully something opens up in the system. Thanks for your info.
We decided to extend our stay from Nov 9-11 for a few extra days are fun. We rented DVC points and there were zero rooms available (studio) except at SSR. I'm starting to get a little nervous that the parks are going to be packed.
Still looking for something at POP Century or Port Orleans and nothing available for 11/7 - 11/10!
Don't expect the 11/7-11/8 availability to open. The Wine and Dine Half Marathon happens then. A lot of people won't be checking out until 11/9. They may not be in the parks but the hotels will be full 11/6-11/9 since it is a night race most racers will take Monday off and use Sunday as a relax day.
That explains it. (Dh has been wanting to go on a DCL cruise that weekend out of Miami - we live in South Florida - so this may clench it!)This. Quite a lot of availability for that weekend was gone in March after the half marathon registration. The rest disappeared when Free Dining came out. Both POP Century and Port Orleans are race "host resorts", so I would not expect any availability to open up at either one. The hotels that are NOT host resorts (CS, AoA, AKL, BWI, CR, GF) would be your best bet.

It never showed up just on-line - only thru my reservations!
