In the aftermath of Hurricane Milton, Walt Disney World is ready to welcome guests back to its popular water attraction, Typhoon Lagoon Water Park. This update provides essential information about the reopening and what visitors can expect as the park resumes operations.
Reopening Details
Typhoon Lagoon Water Park is scheduled to reopen on October 12th, following a brief closure due to the severe weather conditions brought by Hurricane Milton. The reopening aligns with the return of guests to the four main theme parks, which resumed activities after a temporary suspension for safety measures.
Impact of Hurricane Milton
Hurricane Milton made landfall as a strong Category 3 hurricane near Siesta Key, Florida, before moving past Walt Disney World as a Category 1 storm. Despite its proximity, the resort managed to minimize damage, allowing for the swift reopening of its facilities. The storm brought wind gusts up to 70 mph and significant rainfall, recorded between 6 to 13 inches over two days.
Safety and Preparedness
Safety remains a priority for Disney as they reopen Typhoon Lagoon. Guests can expect the park to adhere to safety procedures to ensure a secure and enjoyable experience. The park’s team has worked diligently to address any weather-related impacts and prepare the park for visitors.
Conclusion
As Typhoon Lagoon Water Park reopens post-Hurricane Milton, guests can look forward to enjoying the park’s attractions with confidence. Staying updated on park conditions and operational hours will help ensure a smooth visit. Walt Disney World continues to prioritize guest safety and is committed to restoring the magic for all visitors.
