And people are reporting seeing twisters but no mention if they have touched down.

.....and there will be at least one person who thinks it's some sort of OZ tie in.

Stay safe everyone.

I am in CoP. They stopped running it and are allowing folks to stay inside until the storm passes.

Oh, is THAT what this is? I'm currently stuck under the peoplemover. The 1 day I don't religiously check the weather...It's insane here now.

The twisters were reported in the Dr. Philips area...north of WDW, but, would be safer to be inside somewhere! Be careful!!

It's storming. The wind is awful. People are getting blown over. I'm safe for now under the peoplemover on the buzz side.

 

[disney11fan]

wow. please be careful. it sounds like this could last a while. where do they put all those people to keep everyone safe ?

 

[Sandy Fisher]

We were going to watch today's PGA coverage and they had called play and it was pouring!! DH and I were talking about a couple times we were at Disney during severe storms.
Hope it passes through and clears up so you all can enjoy your day.

I'm staying put. It'll be worse to try moving because of the wind. There are still people trying to move my little goup of sheltermates is stayin put for now.

 

[disney11fan]

wow. people getting blown over. I never knew it to get that bad. Please stay safe. I hope it doesn't last long. I hope it will calm down so you can enjoy the rest of your day. here in Buffalo were watching NCAA basketball. OSU won on a last second bucket.

I hope it doesn't mess with your plans for dinner. Sometimes you can meet new friends have something to talk about and maybe even have dinner with this new found group.
