Usually January, Now June...Please help me change my mindset

[Sweetpeamd]

We almost always travel to the world in January. We love the low crowds, amazing temperatures, low crowds, and. . . the low crowds!!! We have decided to take a short refresher trip this June (early-ish in the month). I've been wondering, how different will our experience be? In what ways? Will we be able to ride anything? I'm a little nervous that it will be sooo hot and sooo crowded that we won't be able to handle it. Please help me know what to expect and how to change my expectations, if necessary.

It will be hot and crowded. My DD’s school always mandates we travel during peak times. But, you know what, we have a good time anyway. Get there early and take advantage of morning EMHs if you are staying on-site. You can get a lot done in the morning. Also take breaks. Nothing like hitting the pool while the sun is burning brightest.

I'm going to WDW in June for the first time as well. I'm a little concerned about the crowds and the heat, but have just accepted that this will be a trip filled with people-watching, water-drinking and lots of pool time in the heat of the afternoon.
I think getting to the parks in the mornings and late evenings when it is cooler is going to be key. In addition, I'm factoring in the late afternoon thunderstorms that tend to roll in and clear out the parks.
