Weather this week

[new]

Aug 23-25 we are at the parks. The weather is showing thunder and heavy rain. How accurate is this and will it rain all day or do you get breaks?

Just go with it!! Poncho up and carry on. Lots to do indoors, don't give up!! You'll have a lot of fun and often the parks clear out a bit.

So is it still rain projected?

I would say yes, look at a weather app, rain all week. Earlier today all the outside attractions at the MK were showing as closed in MDE, this is normally due to storms and lightning in the area. This is the time of year we go (will be there next week) and it is always stormy (and I mean absolute downpours, like Noah and the Ark downpours). It does stop, but it can always start up again. Invest in decent ponchos and go with it! Not much else you can do.

back pack for ponchos and extra pair of shoes, MK floods, ankle deep water, you don't want blisters from wet shoes

In Central Florida, the thunder and rain usually last around 15 minutes. It’s “splash and dash” as they call it here. Hard to predict as well. If you’re in Magic Kingdom, plan to focus on the indoor attractions and find a place ahead of time to dine indoors like a table service or indoor quick service restaurant.
