830am here in Sunny FLORIDA.Latest it will hit Tampa at 8pm tonight, expected 50+mph winds in Osceola.
I will update as day goes on.
Disney are shuting parks early.
Magic Kingdom open 8am till 1
Epcot 8am till 1
seaworld open all day
Universal open all day.
Animal Kingdom shut all day.

Advice from Managenment companies is put all loose items in Garage. News states not expected structural damage to homes in Orlando, ossibl flash flooding with heavy rain. Mobile homes will be damaged. Tampa is considering turning off all Electricity prior to strike as power cables will be affected by rise of over 13 feet in coastal water.
Hopefully those with homes in Orlando area should be OK.
update tonight

They are reckoning now it will hit pretty dead on Tampa Bay. All people in ocastal and low lying areas are evacuating. First major hurricane to hit the Gulf coast since the 1960s, first to hit Tampa in 80 years.
