end of june trips?

[mmgrdg]

Hi! Does anyone have any input on crowds/heat during the last week of June this year? We just got back from WL last week, and we're looking at a possible trip next June (arr 6/27 staying for 4 nights)....this would have us out of there before the 4th of July. Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated!

We stayed at GF the last week in June this year. The weather was absolutely beautiful. Didn't rain one drop for 6 days! The heat was not bad at all, to me-just basically summer hot. I'm sure some of that is because with Fastpass, you are walking more than you are standing in line. The crowds were very reasonable, also, which I feel had to do with many people cancelling June trips and rebooking Fairtale packages that started in July.

that's a good point about the Fairytale people.....
thanks for the response, and glad you had a good trip! 6 days with no rain....that must be a record!

We were there June 29-July 3rd. It did notice the crowds picking up on July 2nd. We did have rain on both June 29th and, I believe, on June 30th. On June 29th, it rained from about 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., and our limo driver said it had also rained that morning. The rest of the day was nice though. On June 30th, it just rained for a short time- maybe 1/2 hour.

As far as the heat, it was about the same temperature as it is here in the Midwest. But the humidity really did us in. It was muggy and sticky at 8 a.m. It was bearable, but we took an afternoon nap/pool break. The short rain showers in the park, were actually kind of a relief.
