Cold Snap Causes Delayed Openings & Lightning Lane Cancellations at Disney World. Guests at Walt Disney World are experiencing canceled Lightning Lane selections for Monday Morning February 2nd, 2026. If you have been one of those affected by a Lightning Lane cancellation, Automagic recovery will be in effect, meaning if a guest had one of the attractions selected, they can come back at any point during the day when the attraction is open.

From what we can find out, it appears to only be affecting these three attractions: Kali River Rapids, Expedition Everest, and Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. The listed attractions will have a delayed opening on Monday, February 2nd, 2026, due to the extreme cold weather happening at Walt Disney World.

Feels like temps when the sun rises tomorrow will be sitting in the low to mid 20s. A thick jacket or coat is a requirement before you head outside. Skies will be clear, but winds will stay somewhat breezy, and on Monday, Feb 2nd, especially mid-afternoon, we’ll continue to feel occasional gusts approaching 15-20 mph. There is some hope! Afternoon highs will rebound into the low to mid 50s, so the persistent sunshine will actually feel just a tad more realistic than it did today.
