As the effects of Hurricane Irma are beginning to be felt in the Orlando/Disney World area, Epcot has seemingly transformed two of their parking lots into staging areas for hundreds if not thousands of utility trucks from around the country. These vehicles are located in the Explore and Create parking lots in Epcot.

Tropical Storm force winds are expected to begin this evening with Hurricane force winds starting to pick up tomorrow evening in Orlando. Florida Power & Light (FPL) has already reported over 30,000 Floridians without electricity, mostly in the southern part of Florida. There have been no reports of any power loss at this time for any locations on Disney World Property. Reports indicate that power outages are to be expected over much of Florida in the next few days. Forecasters are advising most power will be out for three to five days before it’s restored.

We cannot confirm this, but we would imagine that these utility workers are being housed at surrounding resorts and hotels including Disney World Resorts.

We want to extend a big thank you to all of the utility workers keeping everyone safe during this time!
