| Hi All,
I have heard the weather in Orlando is awful at the moment, just like here.
We go on Thursday and can't bear the thought of not seeing some sun this Summer.
Thanks

| At the moment I am sitting on my pool deck in bright sunshine, on a typical Florida morning.
We had some heavy rain for about an hour a few days ago, but apart from that the weather is normal. The temp is in the low 90's, and you may or may not get caught in the odd afternoon rains. We have missed them for the last 3 days.
Do not believe all you read. You will see lots of sun if my rapidly improving tan is anything to go by.

| Fab weather here too Just about to jump in the pool.
As Roger says the weather forecast always looks worse than it actually is because of the afternoon showers, but even those can be confined to a very small area. Last week it rained on half the pool deck, literally half of it, and the other half was dry.
Depending on where you are you may or may not see a shower in the afternoon.
You'll have a fab time so don't worry about the weather, they are no better at predicting it here than at home  |

| The weather forecasters as usual will always put a stint of 60% chance of isolated thunderstorms. but they can never say exactly where, Orlando is such a huge place, you may well get a thunderstorm in Davenport but in Disney about a rough 10 miles away, it is still bright and sunny. They do as usuall cover all the bases, so to speak.
For the past three days, I have been wearing a vest like t-shirt and boy am I paying for it today, I have had to cover up in a sleeved t-shirt, as I am now quite red. and that was just a casual walk around the Fantasia golf yesterday. Don't be lurved into if the sun is not shining, you will not burn, I can say you definitely will. Just done AK this morning, and I was very glad to do the Kali River Rapids, to get a soaking and cool off.
Enjoy your stay, but always remember slip, slop, slap at all times. |

| no, twas rain julie you were right. local weather is 89 - 91 for next 4/5 days with unusual above average chance of rain 70%.
but as is often said it can rain on the us 27 and be dry at sea world or just overcast.
today sunday was hot this morning we did animal kingdom - was too hot we left for disney macdonalds at midday then by the time we got back to the highgrove villa it was bucketing down, same thing yest after lunch at wet n wild. but tuesday thru friday were hot and sunny with just a quick down pour on thursday pm which we sat out in the mgm car park after another scorcher at typhoon lagoon
monday and tuesday are forecasted cloudy with rain all day at present.
right now its humid 89 and overcast but no rain.
to be honest its not the end of the world when its not blistering sun, sometimes it just gets too hot!
the forecasters are starting to hedge their bets regarding a hurricane, as there has been no major storms yet this year  and last year also was below average.we are now mid point in the june september hurricane season and so far they only mention that the sea is warming up from africa, but good news that nothings brewing
hopefully after the bad year a few years ago we will get another good un |
