If there’s one thing we know about hurricane forecasts, it’s that they change.

And we are seeing those changes in action as Tropical Storm Nicole approaches the Florida coastline.
On November 8th, Disney World’s website announced that certain resort areas, including:
- Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground
- Copper Creek Cabins at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge
- Treehouse Villas at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa
- Bungalows at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
would be closed Wednesday, November 9th through Friday, November 11th. On November 8th, Disney World has quietly removed that language from it website. We were able to confirm with Disney World guest services that those resorts would operate normally during those dates.
UPDATE as of November 9th: These closures have been edited and re-added to the Disney World website. The full details on these closures are below.

Very sad…Disney thinks nothing of putting their employees in danger by having to navigate to get to Disney property, notwithstanding the long walks they all have to get to their locations….Their guests come first! Employees really don’t matter, even in a storm! I worked for Disney for 11 years and have seen this first hand.
