Disneyland’s Disney California Adventure Park, Disneyland Park and Downtown Disney District closed at least one hour early on Sunday after Hurricane Hilary made landfall.
Disneyland Resort’s theme parks closed early over the weekend after California officials issued the state’s first-ever tropical storm warning as Hurricane Hilary made landfall and a 5.1-magnitude earthquake rocked the state.
According to Disneyland’s website, the resort’s Disney California Adventure Park, Disneyland Park and Downtown Disney District closed early — at 9 p.m., 10 p.m. and 11 p.m., respectively — on Sunday based on “the latest information from the National Weather Service.”
The parks would normally close at 10 p.m., 12 a.m. and 1 a.m., respectively.
Hotels in Disneyland Resort have stayed open throughout the storm.
Despite the Weather Service’s putting millions under flash-flood watches and warnings in the Southern California area, Disneyland — which is located in Anaheim, just outside of LA — remained open for most of the weekend despite heavy rainfall.
As of Monday, the Weather Service was still predicting that the LA area would get a “moderate” amount of flash flooding, meaning that within six hours of heavy rainfall, at least 40% of the region is vulnerable to flooding.
