Arctic Chill Could Disrupt Disney World Around New Year

Overview

• Local forecasts from Click Orlando/News 6 point to a potential surge of polar and Arctic air Dec. 29–31 that could bring cooler, windier conditions and the first rain chances in weeks.
• Disney has not announced any theme‑park closures, and visitors are advised to check the official operating calendar for updates as the outlook remains uncertain.
• Water parks face the greatest risk of weather‑driven day closures, following recent shutdowns at Typhoon Lagoon and last winter’s repeated closures at Blizzard Beach.
• Disney confirmed the 2025–2026 Water Park Seasonal Pass with prices starting at $89 for adults and $83 for children, one blockout from March 28 to April 5, a 20% same‑day cabana discount, and one pre‑4 p.m. round of mini golf.
• The resort’s rotation sets Typhoon Lagoon to close February 14, 2026, with Blizzard Beach reopening February 15.
