It might just be getting a late start. I've been growing under lights during the winter so my orchids get a little confused...maybe your orchids put in a second growth in the fall?
When you do need to re-pot at the wrong time, just do it carefully. Soak the roots well first, be careful not to break the roots when removing the old medium, then put it in dry medium, carefully sticking the medium around the roots and banging the pot on the table to get it down into the pot, then leave it dry for a few days for the roots to heal (helps prevent fungus from getting into the cracks and rotting out the old roots). The more air your new medium gives the roots, the better. You will lose some roots but not all of them.
