Dorian Update: What’s opening and when

UPDATE: It’s Thursday, so everyone’s open now. We won’t be updating this list anymore. Thanks, Orlando!

Hurricane Dorian is now a Category 2 storm and still making its way up the Atlantic coast from the Bahamas. The storm isn’t as intense as it was but the size is still large enough to have an impact on eastern Florida as it makes its way northwards.

All of Central Florida is still under a Tropical Storm Warning.
There will be no curfew in Orange County but refrain from driving if you can.

In the meantime, Orlando businesses and services seem to already be waking back up after an extended Labor Day break. Here is a running list:
