Tonight is business as usual in the parks, I'm curious as to what hurricane prep you are expecting to live stream?

The tarps have come down around Grand Avenue, but I assume all the tarps around construction zones will be removed. Though I don't know what there is to livestream...

sounds like there is reason to believe Disney is taking down the walls to the new lands in DHS because they will not be able to withstand the winds.

Cool, I'll be there tonight. DHS is my Friday night tradition, lol.

No reason to believe. They started to take down the construction walls yesterday: http://www.wdwinfo.com/news-stories...d-ave-plus-more-updates-at-hollywood-studios/

The "lake" has also been mostly drained. I assume that's to allow for better drainage from the storm.

Stream is over now, but we did see the walls down and the drained lake. I was told the drained lake was part of a refurb that was already planned, but then draining it also made sense due to the hurricane and possible flooding.

The water level is controlled so that it can't overflow.

Nope, Echo Lake, which isn't really a lake but more of a pool, was drained last Wed. and among other things, will be repainted. Dinosaur Gertie and Min and Bill’s Dockside Diner will also be repainted and adjustments to the area landscaping will be made. The refurb is expected to be completed by the end of October.
