Crowd Calendar year-to-year variation

I've just discovered another set of crowd calendars over at **************.net. These are different from the others I've seen, because they're week by week instead of daily, and they already have 2016 posted. The weeks are done Saturday to Friday.

What I'm finding interesting is that for 2015, at http://**************.net/2013/12/05/disney-world-crowds-in-2015/, the middle two weeks of Sep. are both rated 1, with the last week rated 4.

But for 2016, at http://**************.net/2014/09/25/disney-world-crowds-in-2016/, the second week of Sep. is again rated 1, but the third week is rated 2, and the last week rated 3.

I assume the bump for the last week is because of the F&W Festival. But that doesn't explain why, for 2016, not only would the third week go up one point, but the last week would go down. The first week in Oct. is a 5 for both years.

Is it something to do with the F&W scheduling for 2016? Has that even been announced? Or might it be some external factor that only the web site authors know about?
 
Maybe the late start to the school year for some districts is having an effect (since Labor Day is late this year).

None of it is a science though. September is about as low crowd as you will find these days regardless of minor discrepancies in the crowd calendars.
