food IS a theme park
If you’ve ever visited Disney World during hurricane season, you probably know how much the weather can change in a day.
It can get VERY rainy!
But aside from those daily afternoon storms, Disney World can also experience hurricanes! Recently, Hurricane Ian (later downgraded to Tropical Storm Ian) caused significant damage across Florida, and now it looks like another storm could be forming soon.
Hurricane Ian recently left a swath of devastation across the state of Florida, but hurricane season isn’t over yet.

We’ve already told you what to expect in Disney World during a hurricane, and we’ve given you details on some of Disney World’s cancelation policies concerning hurricanes. We’ve also talked about the possibility of another hurricane affecting Disney World soon. Now, a new tropical storm is set to become a hurricane, so we’re looking at if it would impact Florida.
Hurricane Ian tore through Florida in September of 2022, impacting many individuals through heavy flooding and other damage.

Disney World closed for a few days, and we shared a look at what it was like to be in Disney World during and after the storm. But hurricane season doesn’t end until November 30th and some other systems have popped up in the Atlantic now. Are any of them heading to Disney World? Let’s take a look and see.
UPDATE: An update has been given on this situation. Look below for the latest details.
Hurricane Ian impacted Florida last week, and while the storm itself has left Florida, its impacts are still being felt.
Flooded construction
Hurricane Ian dropped massive amounts of rain on various areas within the state (including Disney World) and caused some sign and tree damage in Disney World as well. If you’re within the City of Orlando though, the hurricane had an impact on something important and an emergency alert is now in place.
Hurricane Ian hit Florida hard, leaving many areas of the state completely destroyed.
