I'm not really sure what you are trying to say. Anyone driving towards WDW from Louisiana will be driving towards a storm, which is the opposite of what you are talking about. And you'll be north of it where there might still be pretty bad weather that isn't a hurricane per se. Katrina was a storm that hit the other direction and kept going the other direction, which is the opposite of what was asked.
And a day or so later than previously forecast. Hard to know what effect it will have on air traffic.
You can bring your own gasoline if you have a pickup truck, but it's not safe to have it inside the vehicle (even in the trunk) for an extended period of time.
I went to Publix this morning for my regular weekly shopping. Water was low, but everything else was well stocked. I already have my hurricane supplies, but I didn’t see any empty shelves . . . with the exception of potatoes. The whole potato section of the produce department was empty. I doubt potatoes are a hot commodity during hurricanes though. I was picking up the important stuff - the junk food to eat while the storm goes through (especially chocolate), and my normal butter, cheese, tomatoes, etc. While I wouldn’t rely on grocery deliveries this week, it might be worthwhile to Uber to a store and pick up what you need. The scant food offerings available on property will run out quickly and be more expensive than a grocery store, and there are several stores close to WDW.
We did our Publix run yesterday. No water at all. Milk was running very low. Everything else was fine. Deli was stocked which surprised me as I figured that would be the first kind of stuff to go. Junk food was stocked and readily available. Did the gas run yesterday and no lines yet.
i booked the red eye for wed morning crossing my fingers and taking my work laptop.
Milk shelves were fully stocked at my store. I have canned milk on hand to cook with, but debated getting some fresh milk and eggs. I decided to wait until after the storm to get both. I also decided to wait on meat, trying to minimize what could be lost if power goes out. I did the gas fill up for Fiona when the early tracks showed it coming closer to Florida than it did, and I haven’t driven five miles since it was filled, so it’s still on full. The only thing I have left to do is check the mail late Monday/early Tuesday and then I won’t check it again until after the storm. We have those neighborhood mailboxes you have to drive to, and I won’t be taking the car out starting Tuesday.
my flight was supposed to land at 6pm now its landing 1130 something I think before noon is best but im also taking a risk it has been slowing down. I told my wife if I get delayed a day an import Disneyland trip is in order
Put succinctly, the major roads will be open within 12 to 24 hours AFTER the storm passes, especially Interstate 10 from Houston to Jacksonville, assuming no bridges are compromised. Gasoline supplies likely will be a problem near the storm areas, due to power outages.
That’s not hurricane related, there’s a national potato shortage due to incredibly hot temperatures in Idaho this summer and a lot of crop failures.
Have you flown with wine and water before? Seeing the way suitcases get tossed around, I'd be scared of leakage.
) out to Oct 4-9. We are grateful we were able to make it work and didn’t have to cancel outright.
