Hot Hot Hot

[PrincessAlways]

Well, during our winter visits it sometimes has been too cold for me (not always), so I would say that being cold is worse than being hot. I really hate cold weather.

Here's another vote for the "hate cold weather" club!! Like other posters have said, take it easy, drink lots of water, get a mist-fan, go into stores to browse(not buy ) & cool off. Enjoy yourself, you're at Disney World!

ok, here is my opinion....it isn't hot like Las Vegas is hot - that is really HOT, but it is sticky, humid hot. We go every year the first week in June (and about 4 other weeks during the year) and it is like a sauna. You get all fixed up and you walk outside and the humidity drenches you. The sun can be brutal at times, I have seen a lot of umbrellas to get relief from the sun. When it rain showers, it is a heavenly relief.

Of course, I live in the Northeast. My mom lives in SC and to her, 70degrees is cold!

We went in June of 2004. It was super hot, but we never saw a drop of rain. One afternoon it clouded up and looked like it could pour, but it never did.

It sounds like we will have to pace ourselves and go early to the parks! I am use to the humdity somewhat, that is how our summers usually end up. I am not a big fan of the humid weather but who cares we'll be in Disney World I plan on buying some of those (misters) that some people on here have talked about, I think I'll need them.

We're going the third week in June this year. In the past, we've gone in August and dealt with the heat and humidity. It can't be any worse....right??

NO! We went in August one year and swore we'd never do it again. Well, if that were the only time I guess we could... anyway
We go in June when the kids and I get out of school. We live in southeast GA so we're pretty used to the heat/humidity. But, August was nowhere near as hot IMHO. At least in June there is a breeze. It seemed like in August there was nothing - nada!

We went for a week last year in June...it was pretty hot, but it wasnt so bad. It was very crowded though. Think we are gonna try to go in October or November this year so we can take our 3 year old grandson. Dont want it to be so hot for him. Hope you have a wonderful trip!

We went in June last year and will again this year. It was not bad at all. Only rained twice. Once while at TL. That was horrible. The other was while at dinner, no problem. As for heat, drink lots of water. I've found that there is a lot of shade when you need it. Also we all wore hats, and I attached a carabiner to the fanny packs to hold them while on rides. Start early and go back to hotel for a break in the pool. Sunglasses for everyone is a must. Stop when you need to, the attractions will be there when you are ready.

Have Fun!!!! and you won't even notice the heat.

Is it in June Please can someone who has been in June let me know how bad is it? Everytime I tell anyone I want to go in June they always say it is so HOT and it always Rains. I have never been during the summertime only in the Winter. I am going in June regardless but would love any feedback. Thanks

we were there last june 2006 ... we arrived there it was raining..then next day rained all day ... 3rd day it finally stopped we sweated so much then in afternoon it poured again... if it was not sweat it was rain we had to deal with... but got rain coats and we did not let it stop us at disney and universal.

We went end of June last year and it was VERY HOT!!! and VERY CROWDED! and yes it rained everyday but for a short time. It was our first time to Disney so we loved it anyway but this year we plan on going when its hot but not as crowded.

As the other posters have said - take afternon breaks, dodge into AC whenever you can, and drink lots and lots of water!

I am going this june for my birthday...and although I hate the heat...and definately the humidity...ick....I am just going to suffer through it all...cause I am going to DISNEY WORLD!!! I just plan on drinkin lots of water, I am going to find some of those misters b4 I go, and I just splurged and bought myself a new pair of Ralph Lauren sunglasses, and I think the time has come for me to buy a pair of Crocs. I hear they are one of the best things to wear to the park...so although I am not a huge fan of them...time for me to buy a pair lol
