Weather in February? Clothing? Swimming?

[txtink17]

We've always gone in May, and I don't know what to expect for Feb 3-10. What do you wear? Can you swim? We got the free water park deal, but I don't know if it will be too cold.

We'll be there the week just after that, and are often there that time of year.

Bring a little of everything. It could be very warm. It could be very cold. Dress in layers and be prepared to go from shorts and t-shirts midday all the way back to sweat suits and overcoats by the time the fireworks are shot off.

The pools are heated, so yes you can swim. We have typically chosen not to, though.

We like to bring nylon jogging type suits for that time of year. Easy to layer (even with a turtleneck or a tee) and if you get wet, you dry quickly. For nighttime we add a polartec vest or pullover and some gloves and we're good to go. Simplifies packing too.

Pools are heated but air is often cool. Although we were there this past Feb and it was around 82 the whole time. The previous January was cooler, especially early mornings and late nights. Kids went in pool, we didn't. It depends how you hit it.

Have a great time!

Like a onion is how you want to be Many Layers. We always go right around that time, it can be in the 80's or n the 40's, last year even the 30's What we do is watch the weather for about two weeks before hand and what its trending for while you are there. We find we pack a bit extra but that waaay incase it dropps quite significantly, you are good.

Thanks! We'll pack t-shirts and hoodies for later in the day. Sounds like Texas. Yesterday it was above 80 and I had the a/c on, then last night it dropped to 35 degrees. This morning we're below freezing and snow is on the way! It's so crazy!

We went that same week in 2004. Weather was wild. One morning DD was dressed in jeans, a short sleeved shirt, a long sleeved shirt and a 2layer jacket WITH a hat, and was STILL cold!

Two days later she had on shorts and a tshirt!

Pack for all possibilities. We swam most of the week, it was a bit chilly to get out of the water but the water is heated so once in, it was fine.

ENJOY!!!

Hi, just wanted to say we'll be there the exact same week, but we'll be camping at Fort Wilderness. Thanks for all the replies, good thing we bring an extra tent just to keep our stuff in, looks like we'll be bringing some of everything.
