Guests planning a day at Walt Disney World Resort this Saturday, July 25, should be prepared for some serious heat. East Central Florida — including Universal Orlando Resort and the majority of Walt Disney World Resort — will be under a Heat Advisory for much of the day.
What You Need to Know
The Heat Advisory is in effect from 12 p.m. to 7 p.m. EDT and covers Volusia, Lake, Seminole, Orange, and Brevard counties.
Peak heat index values — that all-important "feels-like" temperature — are expected to reach up to 109°F. That's the kind of heat that deserves your full attention before you head out the door.
Tips for Staying Safe in the Heat
The National Weather Service has shared some important guidance for guests and residents heading into the afternoon hours:
- Drink plenty of fluids
- Stay in an air-conditioned room when possible
- Stay out of the sun
- Check up on relatives and neighbors
- Take extra precautions if you work or spend time outside
- Wear lightweight and loose-fitting clothing
Stay safe out there, and keep these tips in mind as you plan your Saturday!
