WARNING: Orlando Area Theme Parks Under Tornado Warning until 2:30pm 3/29/2014

[Jakester]

Heads Up folks down in WDW, take shelter because there are severe thunderstorms moving in with possible conditions to produce Tornados for the next hour.
Be safe everyone

Thank you. We were actually in the MK one summer with a tornado warning. It poured, and lightning was incredible! We took shelter under the veranda near the Adventureland Dole Whip area. We asked a CM what they do if a tornado actually is spotted. He said that they then open the utilidoors to the guests, and take them down to the area rarely/almost never seen by guests. Although scary, it seemed kinda cool.
Stay safe now!

I'm over here in Union Park Florida next to UCF and the wind is picking up

 

[Bolt]

Seems very calm over here by WDW now

 

[csm]

It stopped raining by SeaWorld about 15 minutes ago now. Still really scary looking skies though, tons of rumbling and a good deal of lightning coming from the south (even though all alerts say the storm is from the Airport and east now.) Oh, Florida.

 

[Prince-1]

Stay safe everyone down there!!
