Hurricane Matthew is headed towards the east coast of Florida. I am sharing with you the Hurricane Matthew Information I have regarding closings.
Hurricane Matthew remains a powerful Category 4 storm with 140 mph winds as it makes its way toward the east coast of Florida.
LEGOLAND- Florida
LEGOLAND Florida Resort will operate as scheduled Thursday, Oct. 6, but LEGOLAND Florida Theme Park may close early due to the approach of Hurricane Matthew. For the safety of all guests and employees, LEGOLAND Florida Theme Park will remain closed Friday, Oct. 7, but LEGOLAND Hotel will be open to admit arriving guests. We expect to operate as scheduled Saturday, Oct. 8, but will continue to monitor the storm’s projected path and will make adjustments as necessary.
In the event that a hurricane warning is issued by the National Hurricane Center for the Orlando, Fla., area or a guest’s place of residence within seven days of his or her scheduled arrival date, guests may call in advance to reschedule or cancel a LEGOLAND Hotel booking without any cancellation or change fees. In this case, guests also may reschedule any LEGOLAND Florida Theme Park or LEGOLAND Florida Water Park tickets booked through LEGOLAND directly, with no additional fees. If tickets were purchased through a third party, LEGOLAND cannot reschedule or cancel them.

Disney Vacation Refund Policy if a Hurricane Warning is in Effect:

My Thoughts & Prayers
My thoughts and prayers are with those that are being affected by Hurricane Matthew. My husband is possibly heading to the Florida East Coast to help as an EMT, so I would appreciate prayers and pixie dust for him as well.
As soon I know more Hurricane Matthew Information, I will add it to this page.
