June, July or August

Which summer month is the best weather? Least humid and least rain? I don't mind a thunderstorm one hour a day, just not all day most of the trip. Also, is it less crowded during one of the months? I know 4th of July is bad.

Middle to end of August is the best time in the summer to go, IMO.

It's hot and humid, and usually rains a lot (those midday storm). But as long as you pack ponchos or umbrellas, then you can still do most of the rides during those storms. The later in August you go, the better the crowds get. We went last week, and while the popular rides had hour waits, it was still managable. But my brother is down there now, and he says it's not too bad. And I went last summer over labor day into beginning of September, and it was almost empty.

From what I've read on some weather chart, July and August are the rainiest months. That said, we went July 5-13 and it POURED pretty much every afternoon for about 30 minutes but it didn't bother us since we had ponchos or we were inside during the storm most of the time.

I don't know first hand but I would think early June would be best as far as weather goes.

Thanks. Sounds like all months are rainy but mostly one small storm every day. That I don't mind. My husband is still looking into vac. times at work so now we may have chance to go in May.

Early June.

This year has been unseasonably dry. But usually the rains intensify as hurricane season progresses...
Late July is brutally hot... and August isn't much cooler... usually expect daily storms.

Definitely early June.

I would definatly say June. We always goin in middle-late July and the heat is totally unbearable, but we love it! haha. It wouldnt be Disney without that stifling heat ;P. This year we went in March and the weather was absolutly gorgeous! It was warm, but not hot we did all the rides peacefully .. not one complaint hehe. August is the same as July really, very hot.
