ICYMI: Disney World During A Tropical Storm!
Checking Out The Magic Kingdom During A Tropical Storm
I mean, why not?
I’d give it a go if I could, too. And today, with a tropical storm bearing down on Florida, Greg Antonelle was back in the House of Mouse.
And, truth be told, the weather wasn’t as bad as it could have been. Mickey Blog made the rounds, saw the sights, and rode the rides.
Part 1: Hold On To Your Ears!
Braving the elements, keeping socially-distanced, our roving reporter gave a play-by-play of the toned-down storm traveling over Walt Disney World.

Part 2: You Will Get Wet!
Welp, the end of Part 1 saw Greg on Splash Mountain, but a technical difficulty put him back on a log, looking toward a pretty big drop in Part 2.

You will get wet! Riding Splash Mountain during a tropical storm.
But, lo and behold, things looked a little bit brighter as Greg headed to Liberty Square and the Haunted Mansion.

Part 3: Queue Up The Ships
The third part of the day saw Greg traversing the park in boats. No, not because he was flooded out; rather he set out for Never Never Land on Peter Pan’s Flight, navigated the major rivers of the world on Jungle Cruise. Finally, he joined Jack Sparrow on Pirates of the Caribbean.

The full queue for Peter Pan’s Flight was a perfect port in the tropical storm.
