One of the most important things you need to know about Disney World before you go? What the weather will be like!
Rainy Day in Magic Kingdom
You’ve got to check the weather before you pack for your trip so you know what you need to pack. However, once you make it to Disney World, the weather-checking doesn’t stop! When will that rainstorm arrive? What time does it get cold tonight? Am I going to be sweating by 11AM? All these questions can be answered thanks to Disney’s NEW app collaboration.
AccuWeather has announced a new partnership with Disney to provide more accurate weather forecasting and enhanced offerings for Disney Experiences destinations. “Disney Weather Check, powered by AccuWeather, delivers impactful, actionable weather intelligence through a customized mobile app and global enterprise platform. Guests visiting Disney parks and resorts can now access customized weather information by downloading the Disney Weather Check powered by AccuWeather mobile app.”

This new app addition allows access to real-time weather updates and location-specific notifications. The integration is available to those visiting Walt Disney World Resort, Disneyland Resort, Aulani, a Disney Resort and Spa, Disney’s Vero Beach Resort, and Disney’s Hilton Head Island Resort.

AccuWeather states that the features of the Disney Weather Check include the following:
- Geo-Fenced Experiences within Disney properties, which activates Disney Weather Check features within the AccuWeather App. Guests receive enhanced, location-specific weather intelligence, aligned with Disney employee alerts, warnings, and advisories used to initiate uniform safety protocols.
- Custom Hourly Forecast providing specific hourly forecast for Walt Disney World Resort, Disneyland Resort, Aulani, a Disney Resort and Spa, Disney’s Vero Beach Resort, and Disney’s Hilton Head Island Resort including real-time weather to support informed decision making and enhanced guest safety.
- AccuWeather MinuteCast® provides a hyperlocal forecast of precipitation type and intensity, as well as precise start and end times for rain or snow weather over the upcoming four hours, pinpointed to a person’s exact GPS location.
- AccuWeather RealFeel® Temperature is the only index that considers more than temperatures plus one additional variable. It is based on 14 factors, which is more precise than other sources, including the impact of sunshine intensity, wind speed, humidity, and air density.
- UV Index with the greatest accuracy and detail available from any source; highly localized UV indices and forecasts provide enhanced protection from UV exposure by allowing users to track their UV exposure hour-by-hour, down to the tenths of a unit.

We downloaded the AccuWeather app ourselves to try it out on a park visit, and it allows you to set park locations as favorites and view maps of the Disney World Resort. Labels like “World Showcase Lagoon” help orient you when looking at the map. It was quite useful!

This will give you more accurate weather forecasts for your vacation-specific locations than choosing something nearby like “Orlando.” We think this is a great upgrade to the AccuWeather app that could be useful for vacationers traveling soon.
