I have looked on a 14 day weather forecase and it shows as rain nearly every day. Do you think this means it is raining all day every day, or just showers in the afternoon. I think I am going to cry
From what I have been told, during the summer we can expect rain most days in the afternoon but tends to be a short storm (say 1-2 hours). This si also our first trip in the summer so will be interesting to see; think we are there the same time as you. Are you coming to the DIS meet at OKW?
I have not said yes, but am going to make a note in my itinerary book - lol.
Since there are 8 of us it might be awkward, but if can will meet you there.
Are you taking poncho etc for the rain? Was not going to but now not so sure.
We have visited for the last seven Augusts. The general trend is that it is sunny in the mornings. It starts to cloud over early afternoon and it normally rains sometime between 3pm and 6pm. The evenings are generally dry. This is not set in stone, however, as on one holiday it didn't rain for about ten days. Another holiday it rained non stop for four days.
Hi Dodgy Bob. We tend to go during the first half of August, but one year we did go for the second half of the month. To be honest we didn't notice any discernable difference in the length of the queues. We always tend to arrive at the parks for opening time and leave at around 1pm to go back to the hotel. The second half of August now has the free DDP for the Americans as well as the Brits so I think the queues are pretty much the same whenever you go in August.When in August did you go? We've been before during the last two weeks and queues were none existant. This time we're going in the first two weeks of August and I'm worried that the queues are going to ruin it
The disney ponchos are easy to fold up small and are light to carry; think they are about $12-$15; probably cheaper at Wallmart.
The Disney ponchos were about $8 last year in the parks. They may have gone up slightly now, but they shouldn't have by too much. Although for Eeyore that amounts to about $65 plus tax for ponchos!
The nice thing about the Disney ones is that they will replace it for you if it rips or gets damaged, even if it was from a previous trip.
Where did you see the 14 day forecast? I would like a wee nosey since I have 2 WEEKS TOMORROW
