I believe they can withstand up to a Cat 4, so they should be fine. Central Florida is expected to Cat 2 winds at most. It's the cost that's getting the full force of the storm.I wonder if they're doing anything to secure the tent facades. Or, for that matter, all of the props that are mostly loose at the TCM exit. The Sprung tents themselves can supposedly withstand hurricane force winds, but I fear that getting the full force of a Cat 4 or even 3 might be too much for them.
Yeah the Sprung tents should be fine so long at the facade doesn't come lose and damage it. The other tent, I'm not sure. It probably also doesn't help that that tent is like 3-4 feet off the ground.I believe they can withstand up to a Cat 4, so they should be fine. Central Florida is expected to Cat 2 winds at most.

It is surrouneded by other building though, so maybe they will shield it.Yeah the Sprung tents should be fine so long at the facade doesn't come lose and damage it. The other tent, I'm not sure. It probably also doesn't help that that tent is like 3-4 feet off the ground.
I can see Thursday getting cancelled if it tracks west but it should be though by Friday night. So I would think Friday would only be impacted is if there was serious damage. I'm coming up for friday-Sunday so I hope the storm gets close enough to scare people away but not enough to impact the event besides some rain and light winds.
When would it be known if it is canceled?
If power and traffic lights are out, debris and power lines in roads, local authorities are not going to want HHN bringing 10s of thousands of locals onto the streets. Also TMs might be inclined to stay home and assess the damage. At this point Thursday seems a lock to be cancelled; much as it kills them to lose $$, I think Friday will be a wash as well.
We plan to resume normal operation across our entire destination as of Saturday morning.
