Did It Actually Snow at Disney World?

In a very rare occurrence, snow has fallen in Florida, and not the fake “snoap” on Main Street, U.S.A. you might be thinking of.

Parts of Florida saw snowfall on Tuesday, January 21st, while Winter Storm Warnings and Winter Weather Advisories continued to remain in effect on Wednesday morning for North Florida. So with all the snow that fell in Florida, did it snow at Disney World?

Snow, ice, sleet, and very cold temperatures hit across Florida, but especially North Florida. In Central Florida, where Disney World is located, no snow fell, but it has experienced frigid temperatures and rain.

While many parts of the country experience cold temperatures, often below freezing during this time of the year, snow and temperatures as cold as what is being experienced in Florida are very uncommon. When snow hits Florida (which is super rare, but does happen once in a while), the ability to clear it in the way a northern state might isn’t available, which makes it more dangerous to those living in the area.

In Disney World, the high temperature for January 22nd was 51 degrees while the low was 40 degrees Fahrenheit. The coldest “feels like” temperature hit 27 degrees around 10 AM. Around 12:40 PM, the “feels like” temperature was 34 degrees, making it a very cold day in Disney World. But not only is it a cold day in the parks, it has also been a rainy one. The frigid Florida temperatures mixed with the dampness of rain can really chill you to the bone if you’re not properly dressed for the conditions.

If you are planning on visiting Disney World in the winter, we suggest packing warm layers that you can add or remove as needed depending on the weather. With the humidity in Florida, it can feel drastically colder than it really is, so packing appropriately for any kind of winter weather is a must!

While it didn’t snow in Disney World this time, snow does fall at the parks from time to time. It has been very cold and rainy in Central Florida, so make sure you’re watching the weather as you begin packing for your next vacation so you can pack accordingly.
