It may be old news, but I only found out about it when What The Fuck Is Wrong With You covered it, and that episode dropped on YouTube today.
Clearwater Beach Hyatt ignored Idalia evacuation order, misinformed guests
Quote:As Hurricane Idalia made landfall north of Tampa Bay early Wednesday, most hotels on Clearwater Beach were empty.
Pinellas County had issued an evacuation order two days earlier for Zone A, which directed all guests and residents to leave the barrier islands.
But the 286-room Hyatt Regency Clearwater Beach Resort and Spa stayed open, sending emails to guests and sliding notices under their doors with false information. “We have not been ordered to evacuate Clearwater Beach,” the messages said, adding that the resort and restaurants would remain open.

The resort slid letters under doors around 5 p.m. on Monday, four hours after Pinellas County announced the evacuation order that would take effect at 7 p.m. that night, according to six Hyatt guests interviewed by the Tampa Bay Times.
