Know before you go: Disney World closures, updated Feb. 17, 2013

As the weather cannot decide if it is going to stay warm or cold, there is a chance Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon may close due to extremely cold temperatures. Not only will this water park close down for the day, many of the resort’s pools, recreation areas and marinas may also experience full or partial-day closures. Before heading down to the pool, call your resort’s front desk to find out if there are any closures in the pool and recreational areas.

As I always say, “It is best to know, before you go!”

Let’s take a look at this week’s list of closures at the Walt Disney World Park’s and Resorts:
