If you happen to be at Walt Disney World in Florida this year while a hurricane approaches, you might find Mickey more prepared than New Orleans.
NOAA’s National Weather Service today declared the facility StormReady. That means there’s an onsite, 24-hour emergency center, multiple ways to receive storm information and issue warnings, and a formal hazardous weather plan. What’s expected to be a busy season starts June 1.
The theme park joins a list of 1,056 other StormReady sites, including 557 counties, 476 communities and a handful of military sites, universities and others.
Only 4 parishes in Louisiana are on the list.
