Disney World visitors have long dealt with extreme heat and rain during summer months, but a new weather challenge is emerging. A developing storm system off central Florida’s coast carries a growing threat of becoming a tropical storm or depression within the coming week. National Hurricane Center forecasts assign increasing probabilities to this system’s formation, ranging from ten percent today to thirty percent later this week. Forecasters warn that heavy rainfall will impact parts of Florida’s western coastline including Orlando throughout the weekend. Wind speeds may increase to fifteen miles per hour as atmospheric conditions tighten across the region. Visitors should prepare for afternoon storms and reduced visibility typical of approaching tropical systems. The National Hurricane Center continues monitoring this weather pattern closely as it moves northward toward the state.
