Wow. Groundskeeping gonna need to hire extra help.
Was your rental car damaged at all? That would be a hassle.

No our rental car wasn't damaged thankfully We parked it away from the bigger trees in the parking lot after getting back from MK on Saturday night and then just hoped all turned out well.

I'll try to find the link. It's in one of my aviation forums (I'm a pilot and Air Traffic Controller). I know Tampa is expecting to be operating Tuesday or Wednesday.

Another ATCer?!?! ZBW here, where are you?

I'm curious how long it will take Disney to clean up. So far from the pictures I've seen it looks manageable.

They lifted the curfew and let us out of the hotel to walk around the resort. Lots of trees down, but it's mostly cosmetic damage at this point. We walked around from the path toward the international gateway and then toward Hollywood studios. Here are some pictures of what we saw.

Wonder how things are at Wilderness Lodge with all that new landscaping?

I bet the vast majority is cleared by dark today.

I'm not an engineer, but if you look real close at the break,it looks like these were meant to break away in situations like this.

I was thinking the same thing - looks engineered to snapped at the bolts that way.

See someone in the above pic already clearing the limbs

Yeah, I do think they laid the signs back. Unless it's that one sign and none of the others.

More trees down at the Poly than I thought. Oasis had a tree down on the fence and part of the hot tub area think that was mentioned earlier. Another down near the docks. Here are a few pics

Does anyone at AKL know what time dinner starts at Boma and if it is still $20 tonight? Thinking about making the trek over from Kidani for a nice birthday meal for my father.

Now to 10:00 I'm pretty sure.

I am on my phone, so photos aren't the biggest. Is that a lifted panel on SE?

Is the tree in that first pic outside Hawaii bldg on the Oasis pool side? And is that a cat hanging out in the fallen tree?

 

[Amy Ewell]

Did GKTW relocate you or did you relocate yourself? Just curious.

I'm glad that you are making the best of a tough situation!

They relocated everyone there to Saratoga. Just heard we will be staying here for the duration of our trip as gktw sustained a bit of damage. We are sad to not go back but determined to have a great time.

Yes, thought I had a better picture of the pool area and how much is on the fence and by the hot tub. Didn't notice a cat, but maybe.. ahh just zoomed it, it's part of the short light posts... its mangled.

Those road signs are built to break away in high wind.
