Tracking weather for trip - good luck!!

[Tiger926]

We arrive in DW this Saturday night. This is our first trip in March, as we always travel in the summer, or April/May or December as I'm a teacher. That being said, we know that Orlando weather is unpredictable this time of year, which is no problem since Orlando weather patterns are very close to the weather patterns of where we live in Southern Ontario (except for the cold/snow) meaning the weather changes by the second! This is normally not a problem since we are used to this, but we are trying to finish packing the baby's clothes (very active 21 month old). Last year, we attended during the Flower/Garden festival and have warmer than usual weather, so it was fine.

This year, yikes! I check accuweather.com, weather. com, disney.com and wftv.com each and every day, and the weather discrepancies are unbelievable! For example, one board says, "sunny, 76", while another says, "rain, 68" - for the SAME day!!! I am getting a bit stressed because we have had a very long winter here and I know that weather across most of Canada/US is very unpredictable right now, so how do you all handle this type of stuff. My DH has told me not to check the weather again until Friday morning before we leave, but I'm having trouble with this. I can understand if this were our first trip, but it's not, and so he's yelling at me as usual about being such a compulsive trip planner, LOL!!

Help, Tiger

I know it's hard but try to give yourself a break. As long as you're prepared for any type of weather they are calling for you'll be fine. Just make sure you have ponchos and make the best of it if you have to use it. Every time we've been there when it rains, the rain hasn't lasted long. Here's some pixie dust and sunshine to get you through your trip.... ....have a great time and try to relax!!!

Thanks! Since we normally travel in the summer, we are used to daily rain showers, but 10 degree fluctuations are what are driving me crazy as I've re-packed my baby's suitcase like 5 times already! The weather for next week is now saying in the 80s, so we'll just have to wait and see!

Thanks for the pixie dust! I'm just a little anxious as even though we are seasoned travellers (especially to DW!), this is the first time we have gone in March.

Thanks, Tiger
