Disney's Blizzard Beach Water Park will remain closed through Saturday, January 25, 2025, as cold weather persists in Central Florida with morning lows continuing to hover in the 30s.

The Blizzard Beach closure began on January 20 as cold and wet weather moved into the Walt Disney World theme park areas.

Blizzard Beach is now scheduled to reopen on Sunday, January 26, with operating hours from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm.

Extended Closure Details:

  • Closed Through: Saturday, January 25
  • Reopening Date: Sunday, January 26
  • Operating Hours on January 26: 10:00 am to 5:00 pm

Reason for Extended Closure

Central Florida has experienced a prolonged cold snap, with temperatures well below average for this time of year. Morning lows remain in the 30s, making conditions unsuitable for water park activities.

Weather Outlook and Reopening Plans

The forecast for January 26 suggests a return to more seasonable temperatures, with highs reaching the mid-60s, providing a more comfortable environment for water parks.

I know they aren't keen to announce a days-long temperature-related closure at the start of the week, but the forecast for Wednesday and Thursday (50-51F for high temps and at least a 50% chance of rain both days) in the Orlando area suggest BB will be closed those days as well. And Friday is currently forecast to have a high temp of 53F.
