Other sources are also reporting that Hong Kong sounded its No 8 Typhoon Signal in response to Nalgae’s imminent impact, the first time in 50 years the city did so. Ferry services around the archipelago–which can be used as a mode of Guest transportation to Hong Kong Disneyland–have also suspended service. Hong Kong’s trading day also came to an early end.

Tropical Storm Nalgae is expected to hit Hong Kong sometime this week.
It should be mentioned that, like Disney World in Florida, Hong Kong Disneyland is built with the ability to endure Typhoon-force weather conditions. It is unclear, though, how this weather will affect the construction of the Resort’s new Frozen-themed land.
🔧 Over in Hong Kong Disneyland, World of Frozen is making good progress with the North Mountain nearing completion (it’s even visible from some Main Street areas) and icy roofs installed on Arendelle Castle.
