What's the weather like now?

For anyone that is at the world, just curious if there has been a lot of rain or a lot of Thunderstorms lately. We are going in 3 days and it seems like lately there are a lot of Thunderstorms in the forecast and they remain in the forecast for awhile more days than not. What are the days like as far as rain/thunderstorms? Are they all day rains or just short rains? Also how humid is it? I have read some forecasts that say the humidity will be in the upper 50s to low 60s but it seems like it would be higher than that. In fact today it looks like the humidity is in the 90s. Is there any hope to have lower humidity in the next two weeks?

How bad does the weather have to get before they cancel Wishes, MSEP, or Illuminations?

Thanks much!

Here are some Orlando local news stations that I use for accurate local weather while planning my trips to Disney. I have found them to be more accurate than the national weather stations. www.wftv.com, www.myfoxorlando.com, and www.mynews13.com.

It.Is.Hot. Like, insanely hot. The past few days have been around 95 - 98 with a heat index of well over 100. Thunderstorms every afternoon/evening to cool it off, but also closing the water parks and pools. Wear sunscreen and drink lots of water!!

Pretty much from late May through early October the forecasts always look the same,hot with a chance of thunderstorms and high humidity.Of course they always vary so it could be hot or very hot but I guarantee it will be hot,there could be thunderstorms that look like the world's ending or it could be pretty nice for a day or so but you will eventually see rain in your trip if visiting in the summer,the usual pattern is sun in the morning with storms in the afternoon.June is usually one of the wettest months and so far it's been drier than normal in my house in south Florida and all the reports I've been hearing of the weather in Orlando sounds similar to Miami,just hotter in Orlando,it always gets hotter in Orlando being inland.One thing I've learned is that rain is not always bad,if it doesn't rain the temperatures get up there in the mid to upper 90's with heat indexes in the 110-115 range,the rain cools it off significantly.

I'm looking at the 10 day forecast for my upcoming trip and am dreading the weather forecast so far. 80% chance of thunderstorms for most of the day, every day we're there. Ew. I feel you on the worry!

Very hot, very humid, small scattered afternoon showers that normally last about 20 min

HOT. Miserable from 12-4. I love the mornings. I also love air conditioning.
