Weather at end Nov/early Dec?

[texasdiz]

Going to WDW Nov. 28- Dec. 5. What kind of weather do you think we should expect? Has anyone else been at that time of year? Unsure whether I should expect to be wearing shorts/capris or bringing a jacket.
TIA!

December in Orlando is completely unpredictable. You could have warm days with cool mornings, or you could have mornings near freezing with afternoons in the 40s or 50s. So you'll need to pack a little of everything and layer!

WE have gone twice during this time. Both times the weather was great!! It was in the low 70's in the day, low 60's at night. PERFECT! Also, it's the dry season, so we didn't have any rain. A couple days it was in the low 80's.
Personally, that was a little to hot for me. I hate hot weather. I sweat to easy.

Many people say to pack for any weather, but I never pack more than a sweatshirt or light jacket for early morning and evening. One pair of jeans, and I wear capris the rest of the time. My DD9 and DH wore shorts, but I don't like them so I stuck with capris.

I don't bother packing heavy clothes, coats or gloves. If I'm that cold I will just buy another Disney sweatshirt. I usually buy a sweatshirt as a souvenier anyway.

Have fun, it's a GREAT time to go. The only time I will go anymore. Also, the crowds are always low. Never waited more than 10 minutes for anything. Still get your Fastpasses for big rides (Soarin', Everest, etc....) but anything else is usually short lines. We walked right onto Tower of Terror at 11:00 am one day, andturned tirght around and got back on. Same with RNR.

It varies greatly - pack for everything! We were there last year 11/29 to 12/9. When we got down, we had record highs - very warm, shorts, t-shirts. By our last day, it was record lows - hats, gloves, coats & still freezing during the day. Honestly, it's really a matter of checking the forcast right before you leave. And we ended up washing some stuff so as not to overpack.
