Typhoon strategy? morning or afternoon?

[firstwdw]

Is it best to get to Typhoon Lagoon in the morning or does it clear out later in the day around 2:00? We've only ever been in the morning and leave by 2 so curious what afternoons are like as we might do that instead. Looking at a Tuesday mid-late April-thanks

I went last weekend and I didn't see it start to clear out until about 4-4:30 pm. If you go in the morning, you can grab chairs in the shade and/or with umbrellas and the lines for the more popular slides had little to no wait. By the afternoon only chairs in the direct sun were available but if you don't plan on staying by the chairs for very long then it's not a huge deal. Also I have no idea if lockers "sell out" but if you want to rent one it would be ideal to go in the morning.

It's also highly dependent on whether it rains/thunderstorms in the afternoon. If it does, the park may really clear out and then the last few hours could be quite uncrowded.

We were just there last Tuesday right at 10:00 and everything was a walk on for the first hour and about 10/15 minutes until about 1:30. Longer lines persisted from there until 4:00 when we left. The park closed at 5:00 so might be different in the afternoons once they start staying open later.
