Too cold in February for an Infant? - The DIS Discussion Forums

jannel80 · 03-23-2012, 08:36 AM

Hi everyone! I am thinking of planning a Feb. 2013 trip and was just wondering what I should expect weather wise? I will have a 6 yr old, 5 yr old and 5 month old. Do you think it will be too cold for the baby? I know this year it was beautiful but not sure if that is the norm?

we went Feb 2011 with our 5 year old and 6 month old twins and it was HOT!!! We were shorts and t shirts every day! I brought jackets and sweatshirts and never needed them once!

February weather is a toss-up ... my rule is to ignore the projected temp for the day and watch wind direction and speed. A north or west wind in Orlando can mke a beautiful sunny day feel VERY chilly.

Dress in layers, bring hats, gloves and sweatshirts in case.

February is a great time.

I'm all for getting them outside unless it's dangerously cold, like 15 or lower. It will be fine, the weather changes each year. When I went in Feb., it was 65-75 and sunny all week, gorgeous. Layers and sunscreen.

I took an infant in December ions ago, and we had to go and buy fleeces for all! Just bring approriate clothing. Layers are a good idea. Put em on, shed as needed.

Have a blast!

It will be fine as long as you bring winter and summer clothing.. bring a blanket in case you need it when it gets a little cooler at night.
