Rainy Day
We are in hurricane season, and storms are something that can really impact your Disney trip — from closed attractions to killing the vibe. We’re keeping an eye on the latest weather to see if it could impact your vacation, so take a look at the latest update.
Hurricanes can form unexpectedly and suddenly and with that, many theme parks try to come up with the best solution to keep guests and their staff safe.

Hurricane Helene touched down in Florida last night and Disney World has already begun their recovery process, opening up their doors and returning to their regularly scheduled hours. As the incredible cast members came together to restore the grounds, we checked out the park to see what Disney World looks like after a hurricane.
