Walt Disney World’s Typhoon Lagoon Will Close Again Due to Cold Weather

Typhoon Lagoon water park recently closed for a few days and re-opened on Tuesday, December 12th.  It looks like the opening is short-lived with the water park closing again on Wednesday, December 13th.  The weather will dip into low temperatures again with the forecast calling for lows in the low 40’s as well as high’s in the low 60’s.  That makes for temperatures that are too cold to be at the water park and enjoying water attractions. Blizzard Beach is already closed due to annual maintenance and refurbishment, so it is not impacted by this closure.

The water parks typically close when the temperatures are expected to be too low to be comfortable.  Many of the pools and some attractions are heated, but moving from attraction to attraction could be quite chilly.  Disney keeps guest safety in mind as well as the operational costs.  The cold weather decreases the likelihood of very many guests attempting to come to the water park, making it a huge waste of operational resources to staff the park  for low attendance.

As always, we will keep you posted about any changes we learn with the operational schedule and the weather forecasts.

The upside is that the cooler temps may be nice for all of you enjoying the parks!
