Lightning strikes monorail and forces evacuation

According to WDW News Today a possible lightning struck the Epcot monorail line Sunday evening around 6pm and forced an evacuation. The evacuation occurred near the Wilderness Lodge and as of right now there have been no reports of injury. About 120 guests we’re evacuated as the monorail was without power.

The news broke via twitter and there has been many photos and additional information being tweeted. As soon as we get the official word from Disney we will update this post so check back with us for more details.
