Anyone there now ? Hows the weather and crowds ?

[maryj11]

Just curious how is the weather and crowds right now ?

 

[Nyltiak22]

Hot/muggy and rainy. Typical Florida weather in august. Crowds are pretty light considering it's august. (Much slower than normal)

So whereabouts in Ohio are you? I'm down SW corner by Cinti. We're heading down in two weeks, after the summer we've had up here so far going to be like going from a freezer to the oven.

Glad to hear the crowds are a bit lighter, hopefully that will continue

Maybe it will have passed though by then.

we leave Sat and DD said the weather looks rainy our whole trip. I'm hoping it just means afternoon thunderstorm.

Yes if it is just the usual afternoon thunderstorm it wont be bad because it doesnt last long. I feel bad for people who pay all that money then have a lot of rain thoughout their stay.

We have been here since 7/28. It has only rained twice for us while we have been here. It rained for two hours the second day we were here. And it rained tonight for about three hours. Other than that, it has been fine, just typical Florida weather. The crowds have really been decent. We have experienced far worse and we have gone the last seven July/Augusts.

We've been in the area for about 6 weeks going to the parks 3-4 times a week. We've experienced more of the rains that last a few hours than those that you usually hear about that last 30-60 minutes and then the sun comes out.

I can definitely say that none of our plans before about 2:00 have been rained out - it is mostly afternoon and evening.

If a FP gets rained out they automatically update your band to be good for the rest of the day for that attraction or several others. If you have time to wait out the rain (which we didn't have the luxury to do) you'll still be able to enjoy everything.

Oh - and its REALLY hot.

So...for the most part...are the crowds so low that the parks seem almost empty?

We're here now, since Sunday. Our experience is AK and Epcot are low crowds. MK and HS are wall to wall people by afternoon. Beyond hot.

Are crowds even low at World Showcase during Illuminations?

why so many at HS is it because of all the Frozen activities going on ?
