Which Orlando weather source is the most reliable?

[Suzanne033]

I have been checking the forecast for Orlando for our trip next week and of the 7 places I have checked all seem to have a different forecast. Some say rain all week, some say scattered afternoon t-storms (to be expected), some say it's going to be fine.

Anyone on here find a particular weather service that seems to be the most reliable?

Here are the ones I tried:

www.imapweather.com
www.crownweather.com
www.wftv.com
www.wesh.com

You have hit all of the major sources there so I'm not sure is really a "more reliable" option ... weather can change in a moment's notice so just be prepared for typical Florida weather during this time of year.

Between now and Sept. - temps in the 90's - HOT & HUMID - Daily afternoon thunderstorms around 3-4pm with the ocassional severe thunderstorm that hangs around for a bit longer.

Good luck and enjoy your vacation ... even if it rains!

The correct answer to this question is "none of the above".

Seriously, weather forecasting isn't as much of a science as the weather services lead you to believe. Each is probably right about next week's forecast even though they appear to give conflicting reports.

Take a look about 2 days before your trip at any of these and then use that as merely an indicator of what you may encounter on your trip. That's the best you can do with such an uncertainty as the weather.

If you are prepared with umbrellas, ponchos/ raincoats, you will likely have a great week of weather. However, afternoon thunderstorms, as previously mentioned, are a common occurrence in the summer. Have a great trip!
