I'm flying to Disneyland tomorrow, and I need some weather/clothing packing help!! What should I pack, clothing-wise and how is the weather?

I live in Florida, so I'm pretty sure how to pack here for Walt Disney World. It's hot right now, and for us, an 80 or even 76 still means shorts, skirts, short sleeved t-s and lots of sunscreen. Plus I can tell the weather just by opening my door!
But I looked at Cali, and have no idea! Is it a breezy cool 76? A hot humid 76? A "sweat just by standing still" 76 or 80?
:umbrella:
Helps pleez and fast!!
 
Cali in Nov is cold in the mornings and evenings, and can get warm in the sun in the daytime. I have lived here my whole life and I think 60 degrees is sweatshirt weather for sure. When I go to Disney in the fall/winter I layer: tank top, t shirt, long sleeve, sweatshirt, then a jacket for the nights. But again I am on the "wimpier" side of cold.

I don't typically use sunscreen in November
 
The humidity is currently very low (high fire danger) so you won't be sweating much.
 

It may be 80 in the sun today, but the thermometer on my porch in the shade says 60. It's definitely a cool, dry 76 and the nights get chilly.
 
I live in Chicago, but I am always cold when I go California any time of the year. I love humidity and the Florida climate. If it's 80 and you are in the sun, it's nice, but believe it or not, 80 degrees when it's cloudy does not feel warm to me in California w/o any humidity. I've been known to wear long pants, long sleeves and a light jacket when it's 80 degrees! And at night, it is cold once the sun goes down, and gets colder. And a lot of places seat you outside for dinner, so be prepared! We are going in 10 days, and I am bringing a winter coat for the nights! lol
 
awesome to know! So, I'm gonna pack those sundresses and shorts away, and bring a few more jeans.

Thanks everyone! And if you see a Floridian shivering in the sunshine this weekend, that's me. :rolleyes:
 
Make sure you bring plenty of layers! Once the sun goes down it cools off quick! It will feel even cooler because of the low humidity.
 
Again - thanks everyone! Just got here and weather is as described! It will be interesting, since I don't have heavy coats. We will be dropping by target to get one! Thanks loads!
 
I live here... love heat and can say... this last week and half.. I have been freezing lol been 46 degrees on my way to work in the mornings and while the forecast might say 80.. it lies lol on my way home at 3pm my thermometer in my car never reads about 72 lol
 
It's been t-shirt and jeans (with a sweatshirt in the shade) weather during the day lately, and definitely bundling up at night especially if you're going to be staying later. Humidity is rarely a problem, and the wind chill factor can make it feel colder than it is. I always recommend a jacket and a hat or scarf for the evenings this time of year. No rain in the forecast though!
