For kicks I checked multiple times today and it has changed numerous times and multiple different weather websites have different forecasts!
I arrived during Sunday night's thunderstorm and it's been raining every afternoon. The thunderstorms have been over some of the parks and lightning has caused some characters in outdoor venues to be sent backstage for safety reasons.
Expect very humid conditions with downpours in the afternoons. If CMs get pulled from outdoor locations, take cover too!
Folks, I live 2 miles from WDW. The weather for the past month or so has had rain in the forecast practically every day. In that time its actually rained twice.
One of these pp's must have 'selective' remembering!! I'm inclined to believe the ones that are 'out' in it in the parks!! We arrived on Tuesday and I have found the weather to be quite warm so it makes me feel better to know that locals are saying it is unusually hot and humid. We were here last year at the end of May and this feels the same or hotter to me. There was some rain last night around 6-ish...we were waiting for our table at Beaches and Cream when they closed Stormalong Bay due to threatening weather. They must have reopened the pools though because we saw people swimming at the Grand Floridian on our way back from Epcot. But when we got to our resort (the Contemporary), the pool was closed. There is more rain/thunderstorms forecasted for the same time today but we will see!My dad lives there and says it is unusually hot & humid for this time...however as other posters have said the weather changes like the visitors in the world....minute by minute. Don't count on the forecast, just have your ponchos ready and stick to your plans!

I don't mind overcast, but I'm trying real hard to pray the rain away!It's raining right now. Was just overcast yesterday - same as the photos I posted on Wednesday.
Thanks for the update!Yes, be prepared. Character Palooza's last two sets were canceled on Thursday in DHS. Fantasmic crowd endured a downpour when Steamboat Willie and the characters entered that night.I arrive on April 21st. So I'm sure it will rain that day for sure - rainy weather seems to follow me around. It's pretty bad in Georgia right now.
I'm really hope it will be nice and sunny but I'll be prepared for rain too.

where oh where is my Florida sun 

Today it was dry when we entered the line for Tower of Terror...during the drops we could see heavy rain..when we walked off the ride it had stopped an that was the only rain we saw all day. Otherwise mostly sunny and very hot
