Walt Disney World has extended Blizzard Beach’s weather-related closure through Sunday, Nov. 15, leaving the resort without an open water park for the weekend.
Blizzard Beach had initially been scheduled to close Friday, Nov. 13, and Saturday, Nov. 14. Disney added Sunday to the closure as a cold front brings cooler mornings and gusty winds to Central Florida.
Typhoon Lagoon is not an alternative this weekend. It closed Sept. 9 under Disney’s seasonal operating schedule, during which the resort typically rotates its two water parks for maintenance and seasonal work.
Disney Fanatic reported that temperatures around Orlando could begin in the 40s on Saturday, with wind chills in the low to mid-40s. Sunday is expected to start in the 50s before afternoon temperatures return to the 70s.

Blizzard Beach is currently expected to reopen Monday, Nov. 16, weather permitting. Guests planning a water-park day should check Disney’s official operating calendar before heading out, as weather can prompt further changes.
Disney’s four theme parks—Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Disney’s Animal Kingdom—are expected to keep their regular schedules. Individual outdoor attractions may still be affected by conditions. Kali River Rapids, for example, could temporarily close during uncomfortable temperatures, according to the report.
