It is hurricane season, and we are constantly keeping an eye on severe weather that could affect your Disney World vacation.
Right now, the National Hurricane Center is tracking not one, not two, but FIVE areas of interest in the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico.
That’s right, there are five disturbances that the National Hurricane Center is keeping an eye on. However, before anyone panics, ALL of the current disturbances have a LOW chance of development in the next seven days.
Of course, a low chance of development does not mean a zero chance, and weather is constantly developing, but right now there is not a high chance of a severe storm developing. All of the disturbances have a 30% or less chance of developing in the next seven days.
The Atlantic hurricane season lasts from June 1st through November 30th. This year, the NOAA National Weather Service predicted above-normal hurricane activity, so we have been expecting an active hurricane season. We will continue to keep an eye on these disturbances and provide you with updates!
The good news is that even if you find yourself with a Disney World vacation planned during hurricane season, Disney World is well equipped to deal with the severe weather. You will want to take extra precautions if you are visiting during hurricane season including packing lots of rain gear.
It is also important to manage your expectations of Disney World during a hurricane. While Disney World has earned a great reputation of being a safe place to be, the parks and resorts will look a bit different during an emergency.
Attractions and restaurants may be closed, and some programming may be limited. Depending on the severity of the storm, the parks may close or have a delayed opening. However, Disney World will still make sure you are well taken care of!
