If you’re in Disney World or Orange County right now, we’ve got very important news for you.
Severe weather is no joke anywhere, especially in Disney World. It can impact the rides operating, the safety of parades and characters meeting guests, and the dryness of your belongings. If you’re in Disney World right now, you’ll want to get inside SOON and stay there for a little bit.
Disney World and all of Orange County are currently under a Tornado Watch and a Severe Thunderstorm Warning according to WESH 2.
