If you have plans to travel to Walt Disney World soon, be prepared! Strong winds and rain are likely. Be sure to pack ponchos, an extra pair of shoes, raincoats and umbrellas!

Walt Disney World takes tropical storms and hurricanes seriously and proper precautions will be taken if it should develop into a hurricane.

Park closures are rare due to weather, but they have happened before, but only a number of times. The Disney Parks closed in 2017 because of the threat of Hurricane Irma.
