We have gone to WDW the past 2 Januarys during the first week. Crowds are still faily heavy due to alot of schools still being out. Weather is iffy as far as temps go, we have had mid 70's to low 40's, so you never know. Not much rain that time of year though. Hope this helps.

DH and I went the first week of January two years ago. It was excellent!! The lines were almost non-existant, and we almost thought Epcot was closed since we were the only people in some lines. The weather was great - low 70s during the day, and low 60's at night. Only once did I want a sweatshirt (We're from NH, so our definition of warm might be a bit different)

I would definitely go in January again

The crowds are quite manageable after New Year's weekend.

Weather is completely unpredictable. You could have warm days with cool mornings or you could have mornings near freezing with afternoons near 50. And both of those could happen within a day or two of each other. Pack lots of layers!

January is the slowest time of the year. with the exception of New Years Day and this January 1st falls on a Monday so I don't think to many people will be hanging around after the 1st. The weather is 73 average (near the lowest) and a rainfall total around 2 inches (near the lowest)
