One aspect of planning a Disney vacation that can easily go overlooked is preparing for the weather. The temperature, rain conditions, humidity, and other factors all play a major role in dictating which attractions guests experience, what they wear, and any accessories they might bring to the parks. Disney recognizes guests’ need for accurate weather predictions, and is preparing accordingly with a new initiative.
Disney is teaming up with AccuWeather to introduce new app functions specifically for guests visiting Disney destinations. We have details on the new features and how to access them. Mickey Visit brings you the latest Disney news and planning resources, including how Disney World is changing every scene in Walt Disney’s Carousel of Progress and an upcoming new version of a closed attraction.
