Weather in December

[DHSsenior007]

I'll be going December 18-24. What should I pack? Does it get so cold that I'll need a heavy coat or what?
TIA!

we were in disney 2 weeks ago, 2 days were nice close to 80 but down poured, then it cleared up and was pretty chilly. night time you would need a heavy coat, i even brought gloves with me and wore them 2 evenings. have fun.

It's looking like you can expect Highs in the low to mid 70's (72-76) and lows at night to be mid to upper 50's (53-59). Although the lows usually occur very late or very early in the day, not when you'll be awake.

This December has been kind of dreary. (A very Eeyore type month) It could rain (likely to at least a little bit) but usually not long or hard.

Things to remember to bring:
- a pancho or plan to buy one at the parks.
- a change of sock, in case you get wet.
- water proof sunscreen
- water proof bag/fannypack
- water proof jacket or pull-over for the evenings/mornings

The sun starts to go down around 5:30 pm so a good portion of your day could be spent in the cool of the evening.

Have a great time!

Last year at Christmas you needed a heavy jacket so you never know. If you are coming from a cold climate the colder temps might feel warm to you.

I would say I didn't come from a colder climate being from north Texas, but when I got up and out this morning, it was about 8 degrees!
