Not a dumb question at all -- but here's a question for you: do you tend to run warm or cold? That will make a difference in how the weather at DLR feels to you.
The week before your trip, start checking the local weather forecasts. This will help you with your packing. Check for Anaheim, CA, not just Los Angeles. We use abc7.com, but there are other sites that DISers like: Most accurate Anaheim weather forecaster?
Mostly, remember that layers are your friend! It's been jeans and t-shirt weather during the day, but in the mornings and evenings, you'll need a jacket or hoodie. As soon as the sun starts to set, things get chilly. If you'll be seeing nighttime shows like F! or WOC, bring a jacket -- it gets cold down by the water! You can always get a locker to store your jacket and other layers during the day so that you'll have them handy for nighttime. Have you been following the Rise of the Resistance BOARDING GROUPS Superthread *No Ride Spoilers Please* *PLEASE READ POSTS 1-3* ? Look at the photos from 2/17 in the morning (there are some photos of the lines at security and in the esplanade) -- look at what everyone is wearing: jackets, hoodies, jeans, etc. It's not shorts and tank top weather in the morning!

Thanks - that really helps...

Sounds like the average "summer" day in the UK

Canadian here and I chuckle seeing the weather reports and then pictures. "Oh look... someone in a tank top and shorts in February. Bet they're from Canada or the UK."

I was there last week and wore jeans and Tshirts during the day with long sleeves and a hoodie at night. Also, wore shoes and socks to keep my feet warm.

I was there 12-15 and from about 10-4 I was super hot and then freezing before and after, there was no in between for me and the temperature shift happened crazy fast...I wore a t-shirt and jeans wishing I was in a tank top and shorts during the hot part and a long sleeve shirt under my tshirt and a thick coat and gloves during the cold part wishing I had an additional sweater and a scarf and warm leggings under my pants! I definitely needed a wide brim hat for the sun and my gloves for the cold or I would've been miserable.

Yes, it's all of those

Helpful, right? I've had definite shorts and t-shirts days... Often followed by jeans Ann winter coats in the evening after dark. This year doesn't seem to be as cold as 2019, which is good!

Layering is my advice!
