Is early May a low/medium/high crowds mouth? and does anyone know what month H20 Glow happens?

In 2023, H20 Glow was held every Saturday from May 20th through September 2nd. Plus 2 Mondays in July.
 
Last May was very quiet. It will be interesting to see if there is a ticket deal next year to help bridge the gap between Spring Break and Summer.
 

We go in the beginning of May nearly every year. This past year it wasn't too bad, but there's no predicting what it will be like in 2024. I've been there in May when it's been relatively crowded. It's never Christmas week crowded in May, but it's also never empty, a situation that's now quite rare at WDW, in any month.
 
We spent 12 days in early May of 2022, during what I'd call the height of revenge travel (May 4th thru the 15th). It was amazing. The weather was unbelievable! Humidity was so much better. Rain only impacted a park day once, briefly, in the evening for less than an hour. And the crowds were maybe middle tier. We had no issues doing everything we wanted and the only challenging ADR we could not get then was Space 220. If school wasn't an issue and we could travel then every year it would definitely be a top Disney travel choice in our family.

That was 2022. It was hot this past May. I was speaking to my seatmates on the plane on the ride home and they said they usually go in September. I asked them how hot it was then, and they said it had been hotter that week! So, beware. It could be cool and breezy or hot hot hot. I've had both experiences.

Man I hope it's quiet!

that makes me hopeful!

I love the idea of not so brutal weather! May seems like a solid choice.
