When we went two years ago in June, it RAINED (not just for 30 minutes, but poured for all but one day of our trip.) I know, it rains in FL, but June is the rainy season. We contemplate going again every year, and decide against it because of the pouring, sopping mess. Maybe when the baby is 6 YO.
DD & i went the first week of june last year, & encountered the quite a few rainy days also (mostly short-lived and/or light rain tho).
but one day the rain was torrential & long lasting
. the kind of rain where we needed to "feel our way" (we were in WS) b/c we couldn't see, our layers of clothing were soaked (squeezed actual puddles of water out of them), DD's cel phone (in its case, in a duffle, under a sweatshirt & rainjacket) was totally water-logged.....it was like swimming through WS
as i say when anything goes wrong, it was "an adventure!"
, but we were surprised that it rained much more in june than in
any of our trips in april, may, august, sept, or oct
we didn't find the crowds unbearable tho
. we took advantage of the eve EMHs (saw figment over & over & over........lol), used FPs, hopped to a diff park or did outlet shopping if the crowds were just too much when we got there. & we checked beforehand the dates/parks for the "unofficial" gathering that norm goes that week, avoiding many crowds/lines by just going to a diff park initially
all in all, i would do it again (just would bring a few raincoats, plastic bags, & umbrellas
)
I loved the first week in June and the week in May. The weather was nice and it was not too crowded. October was so hot and humid, I almost died. We were there in a freaky heat wave...we are thinking about going back the last week in May this year. We'll see how the crowds will be then...
