Airlines and cruise companies are taking precautions as Hurricane Dorian approaches the Southeastern United States, where it’s expected to hit as a major hurricane.
Hurricane Dorian is expected to become a Category 4 storm before hitting Florida or Georgia Sunday night into Monday morning, according to the latest forecast from the National Hurricane Service. Florida Governor Rod DeSantis declared a state of emergency on Wednesday.
Orlando International Airport is preparing for the hurricane, but as of Thursday, only two flights from Puerto Rico have been canceled because of the storm, according to a statement sent to TIME.
Port Canaveral in Orlando has been set to condition “WHISKEY,” which means that gale force winds are expected to arrive within 72 hours, according a statement on the Port Canaveral website. Officials there are anticipating limited operations when the storm hits.
The Kennedy Space Center is also preparing for the storm to hit and is taking necessary precautions, according to a statement sent to TIME. “Preparations at Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex are well underway in anticipation of Hurricane Dorian. We have strong protocols and plans in place to ensure the integrity of our artifacts and the safety of our associates,” the statement says.
Here’s how Hurricane Dorian will affect you if you’re planning on traveling to or from the affected areas.
