Florida visitors were forced to wade through ankle-high water Monday after flash floods hit the Walt Disney World Resort on Monday.
Video footage has started to emerge on social media, in which guests are seen flooding the streets.
A video recorded at Disney's Hollywood Studios shows some guests giggling in the water, ready to make the most of their trip regardless of weather conditions.
BBC Weather presenter Sarah Thornton was visiting the theme park and posted footage of submerged streets on her Twitter page.
"Flooding at Walt Disney World at Disney Park's Hollywood Studios this evening. An artist said he'll never see the likes of [its] in 17 years," he wrote in the caption.

While some guests can be seen walking swiftly and carefully in the waterproof water, others can be seen dancing and playing in the water in shirts and tops.
Posting a second video, she captioned it: "More footage from a very wet Walt Disney World at Hollywood Studios in Disney Park after a very intense band of T-stormers drove through Florida."
Another guest at the park recorded people passing through heavy rain while the streets were already flooded.
Twitter user Ed Holmstrom captioned the video: "Lake Buena Vista has hit the tri-state area tonight. We weren't expecting 3 inches of rain at Hollywood Studios."

Footage of TikTok user paging mrmorrow, shot during heavy rains, has also proved to be popular. His video, posted on Monday evening, has garnered over 1.6 million views and over 170,000 likes and 2,500 comments. It can be viewed here.
The video was captioned with the title "Best day ever" as it featured himself standing in the rain and recording it while the Walt Disney theme song was playing. He was also able to capture footage of children running, jumping and playing in the rain.
Another user, Adrian Tex Disney, made fun of the situation in a video that has garnered over 400,000 views.
"Let's say there's a new water park located down Hollywood Boulevard at Disney World," he wrote as one caption.
Although severe weather was not expected, Central Florida is in dire need of rain due to recent drought conditions, Fox 35 reports.
"Definitely welcome rain for the area. We really need it," meteorologist Brooke Garner told Fox 35.
"The bottom line is we're going to have to rinse and repeat over the next few days because we've got hot weather around the 90s over the next few days."
Disney has not announced whether heavy rain or flooding will affect Tuesday's operations.
