What are crowds, lines like in early Nov.?

[SueSue]

How hot will it be in early Nov.? Will we be able to swim? I'm assuming lines will be considerably shorter than in the summer, when we usually go, but thought I better ask those of you who have been at this time of year.

Thanks and have a great day! SueSue

I went this time last year. Lines were short except for Saturday. The highs were in the upper 70's but it got a little chilly mid 50's at night.

If you however are going during "Jersey Week" the lines will not be so short. We ran into it this past year and were surprised at how many people were there! By using EE and Fastpass we managed just fine. However it may be less than summer crowds but I've never been then. Not sure when the NJ teacher conferences are this year, but its always sometime in the beginning of Nov.

Anyway the weather was wonderful! We swam almost everyday. The temps were mostly in the mid to high 80's. In the evenings it did cool off, but it was a nice warm cool off.

It's a great time to go!

We were there last year in early November, including "Jersey Week," and didn't have any problems. The weather was great and we swam every day, I even went down each night for the hot tub, even though it was a bit chilly.

Crowds are not an issue, except during the middle of the day.

What is Jersey week and when is it? Thanks to all who responded to my post. You have been very helpful!

NJ Week this year will be the first week of November, Nov 1- Nov 9. In NJ all public schools get Nov 6 -7 off, and most districts also get Election day off which is Nov 4. Some schools don't even bother opening, and close the whole week. Since it's an inexpensive time to go to WDW, and usually less crowds then the summer a lot of NJ'ers head down that week. There are a LOT of NJ residents there that week, and it is more crowded than a usual off-peak week, but not as crowded as the summer.
