Will Hurricane Katia Impact Shades Of Green And Walt Disney World

Do you have plans to stay at Shades of Green for a Walt Disney World Vacation next week?

Will Hurricane Irene Impact Shades Of Green And Walt Disney World

Do you have plans to stay at Shades of Green for a Walt Disney World Vacation later this week or early next week?

Currently the National Weather Service projects that Irene will be a Major Hurricane with winds in excess of 110 miles per hour as it passes by the east coast of Florida on Thursday and Friday. But the hurricane force winds are projected to be off shore!

Hurricane Operations

Wow I’ve been so busy this month… I’d wanted to really get going on the site but Hurricanes Fay, Gustav, and Ike had other ideas. This week we finished up an intense almost month of high tempo operations for the hurricanes. Working mostly every day and numerous 12-hour plus  shifts. Getting rescue forces ready, positioned, and then and moved around again for each different storm culminating in the the rescues the night before and the day after Ike’s landfall.

In two weeks I go TDY to a two month long school. I’m going to try to work on the site some before I go and definitely while I’m at school. I’ll have a lot of free time there.

Well going to get to work…

I’ve been thinking about doing a piece on the tunnel under the Magic Kingdom.
