Brrr! If you’re in Florida right now, you might be feeling the cold weather blowing in. While anyone from a colder state with real snow might be saying, “It’s not that cold,” for us Floridians, we’re pulling out the winter jackets and knit caps.
Typhoon Lagoon
While a lot of activities in Disney World can be canceled for weather, we’re usually talking about storms! The lightning, rain, and wind can cancel fireworks, parades, and shut down your favorite outdoor attractions, but did you know the cold weather can shut down activities, too?
Typhoon Lagoon, one of Disney World’s two water parks, is currently closed due to cold weather! The temperature for November 11th has a high of 59 and a low of 36 — that’s super cold for us!

Closures of the water parks due to weather are usually something that comes up on the day of or the day before, so you won’t necessarily be able to plan on skipping the water parks, but it’s a good idea to have a backup plan if you know you’re visiting during the colder months.
Happy Landings
All Disney World hotel guests get a free water park ticket on the day of their check-in, and while we recommend taking advantage of it, you might not be able to if it’s too chilly. Your hotel pool might still be open, and this could be a great time to check out the Christmas decorations at the different resorts. You can also head to Disney Springs for some shopping and food on your check-in day.
Typhoon Lagoon
Another option is to grab food at your resort and stay in for a movie day! If you’re paying the price of a Disney World hotel, you might as well take advantage of it as much as you can. You can also get extra blankets and snuggle up with some hot chocolate (Joffrey’s is my all-time favorite) from the coffee shops or quick-service locations in your hotel.

While Typhoon Lagoon is not planning to reopen today, Florida weather can change quickly, so it’s possible it will reopen tomorrow. Keep an eye on the hours listed for the water park, and you can also talk to the Cast Members at the front desk for any more information.
