Which park is best for heat

Or does it really not matter! We are arriving Saturday and the highs are forecast for 95! I was thinking Sea World or Wet and Wild for that day. Are there many inside things to do at Universal?

Well...IOA has the water rides (expect long lines) but the Studios has the majority of indoor attractions...except for Jaws. Spiderman, CITH and Poseidon's Fury are indoors at IOA. But a lot of the queues at Universal have fans and/or misters to help keep you cool while waiting.

Depends on how you fight the heat.

Universal has more indoor (air-conditioned) attractions. At Islands of Adventure, you will get soaked on Duddly Do Rights, and even wetter on Popeye's!

Yeah I would have to say IOA, there are few ques that are not air conditioned, well maybe hulk, JP and Pteradon Flyers, but not sure if there are any others. And the main water rides are at IOA too. But its more or less a toss up, there are places to cool off at both and both mostly have air conditioned areas where the lines are with a few exceptions.

Terminator 2: 3D is quite good for a break from the heat. It's quite a long show and you usually have to wait for a while depending on how you time it. Nice and air-conditioned

How about a choice for the heat between Universal or Sea World, which is better for the heat?

Sea World has a lot of ways to get wet, and only a few ways to go inside and get cool.
You really aint going to beat the heat this time of year. My best advice is to go EARLY in the morning, leave and come back later in the day.

Being honest I found Seaworld hotter. Maybe it's just the location or something? Seems to be a lot of heat-traps there.

There is no shade at Sea World.

That'll be what it is. I also have a connection in my head of IOA being hotter than the studios, but that could be down to lack of shade, also.
