August morning heat = evening in the parks better?

[Mickey18girl]

I'm flying down to Orlando tomorrow. I've been debating buy the mid-day magic tickets with noon entry. I normally do rope drop to knock out a lot of rides (and usually no thunderstorms, which is a plus). But my question is whether it is going to be muggy/hot/uncomfortable at 7 am or 8 am and if this week it might generally be worth just doing noon entry and staying in the parks until late. I've been to the parks recently, so it isn't like I need to ride every single ride. Just trying to pick the best times and ticket prices. And I know HS is open really early along with Extra Magic at AK and MK... so makes me wonder how evenings will be.

I normally never buy tickets this late, just haven't been able to judge how to make the best use of time since I won't be there for many days and Galaxy's Edge is a big wild card.

Thanks!

I was down a week ago and it was just gross any time of the day. I personally wouldn’t buy the midday ticket for this week. Since the crowds are such a wild card and you don’t mind rope drop I would go with a normal ticket so you will have more flexibility to go with the flow. I dont necessarily think that nights will be slower this week I think there will just be much longer lines at Star bucks.

The mornings have had temps in high 70's to low 80's Nights are not any cooler.

It will be humid all day long regardless of the time. It may feel a bit cooler in the morning before the midday sun starts to beat down, but not by a lot. just plan on being hot, sweaty, and sticky the whole time.

Like the above poster said, it’s muggy 24/7. We’ve been at the parks all week, and I find that the morning sun isn’t as hot.

I was really concerned with the August heat in Florida. My dh and I aren’t in as good shape as we used to be. But we’ve been able to cope surprisingly well with lots of shade breaks, ac shows, and drinking a lot of water. I bought a great 40 oz water bottle that I hang from my crossbody. It’s not as heavy as you may think and it’s been a lifesaver.
