News Walt Disney World Heat Safety Tech? Disney Patents System to Help Guests Manage Summer Heat

[Chi84]

Once again…for the kids in the back…not only is overall attendance at a significantly down from its height….

Some periods it’s cratered…summer being one.

And it’s the same cause and effect. Which isn’t that Florida is hot

The kids in the front don’t want attendance at its peak levels. Those kind of crowds make the place miserable.

 

[Disstevefan1]

Florida is hot because of and Disney has poor management.

FTFY

 

[Chi84]

When’s the last time you were there, boss?
And how much did you light on fire buying ride skips?

Probably as much as you.

 

[Chi84]

FTFY

But it’s not magical when Florida is hot!

 

[Nubs70]

They need a better name for that. It could be the most accurate heat index in the history of history. I would not take it seriously.

Wet bulb is a common term. As dry bulb temperature approaches wet bulb (increasing humidity), evaporation decreases hence the ability of heat dissipation by sweating.

I'm sure there is a perfectly logical, scientific reason for the name. I still can't take it seriously.

Only negative and hateful legacy fans notice this stuff. "Real" Disney fans are supposed to be positive and look the other way.

I feel like the Disney "Pixie Duster" community is facing a lot of resistance today.

Can we all please STOP noticing and talking about negative Disney things out loud....please?

You guys are ruining the magic for the rest of us.

I’d didn’t realize you were doing “non-reality based” comedy

My bad

OMGosh! They are actually working on a system to tell you when it's too hot and humid ! They've got to be kidding.
We all know when it's too hot and humid and what to do for it. It sounds a lot to me like CYA so if people faint or get sick from the heat they can say, " We had warnings that it was hot". I agree that the misters were wonderful, and of course, more shade would help. #1 is to turn the AC back on in the attractions. Don't need to be a rocket scientist to do this.

It is more a case of reorganizing your plans around the weather.

Common sense!

What would they be CYing their As from?

Not everyone has tons of experience with Florida heat and humidity. Maybe Disney is just trying to help them prepare for and navigate it. They don’t want people to faint or get sick.

 

[Mr. Engagement]

Do any of us know how many heat-related illnesses and/or injuries happen each year at WDW?

 

[Jambo Dad]

Add shade when building new things. It's not that difficult.

And misters.

Once again, for those who continue to oversimplify everything, things can happen for multiple reasons.

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

Once again, for those who continue to oversimplify everything, things can happen for multiple reasons.

But not equal reasons

 

[Mr. Engagement]

But not equal reasons

Right. And to me, discussions that doesn’t acknowledge those reasons (and how they factor) are boring. What’s the point?

Good point. The lawyers may have requested this.

It’s like life insurance…the top 3 reasons are

1. Price
2. Price
3. Price

What exactly did the lawyers request?
