It’s been less than a month since Hurricane Debby turned Tropical Storm Debby hit Florida.

The worst of the storm mostly hit Northern Florida while its bands swept across Disney World and Orlando causing lots of rain and storms. The parks never closed, but many flights were delayed and canceled at the Orlando International Airport. The National Hurricane Center continuously monitors the tropical areas for developing storms and hurricanes as Florida continues to be in hurricane season. Now, the NHC has been following two tropical disturbances in the Atlantic for possible development — here’s what you need to know.

According to the NHC, the area of low pressure in the Western Atlantic has a low chance of formation within the next 48 hours and 7 days, roughly a 10% chance of formation. The disturbance in the Central Tropical Atlantic is also an area of low pressure with a 0% chance of formation in the next 48 hours and a low 20% chance of formation through the next 7 days.

These are low chances, making it less likely for tropical storms to develop, but it is something to be aware of and monitor if you live in the Florida area or plan to be at Disney World in the coming week. It may get rainy and wet while you’re in the parks.

Rain happens all the time in Florida and hurricane season continues into November for the area. If you’re planning a trip to Disney World this fall, we suggest packing rain gear regardless of these possible developments. Keep an eye on the weather forecast leading up to your trip so you ensure you’re prepared!
