Which weather site do you use?

[TISHLOVESDISNEY]

This is the first time in all my trips, that this close to leaving, the different sites I use are different. (Enough so, that it effects our plans slightly)
We leave Tuesday AM.
Wesh has only 10% rain, except Friday when it is 40%. temps low 60s except Friday 72.
13 has mid to upper 60s, no rain except Friday, 30%.
Accuweather low 60s, rain Thursday 74%.
Weather.com midish 60s, with rain Thursday 80% and 20% Friday, 70.

Honestly, I don't care about Friday, it's my Thursday HS fireworks/Fantasmic plans that has me nervous!

What do you use? I'd love to know what locals use.

Try this http://www.clickorlando.com/weather
BTW, I'm not local I just did a search online for local stations.

I ignore all weather forecasts more than 12 hours out and use an app called DarkSky for same-day weather in my immediate area.

This makes sense to me. I've lived and traveled all over the U.S., and the local forecasts for the WDW just don't seem to nail it down very far in advance. They do ok with hi & low temps, but the the rain chances are all over the place. FWIW, even in parts of the country where they do seem to get it right, 5 days out is a total crap shoot.

Utilize the National Weather Service since your tax dollars pay for it.

Yeah, I have seen it change more this trip than any other trip. I am going to wait to finalize FP/ADR plans Monday night. Just want a back up plan incase its rainy and cold, I can handle one or the other...

I use weather.com primarily, but will also refer to some local Orlando news stations (wftv, wesh, etc). But like others, I check a day or two prior to the trip.

We just returned from a Xmas week trip and weather was in the 80's all week long, tank tops and shorts everyday. In past years, our December trips had weather more in the 60's. Keeping an eye on the weather, I knew to concentrate on packing warmer weather clothes.

I second the Dark Sky app. We had a lot of on/off rain during our trip last week - it had the most accurate forecasts we saw all week.

weather.com and weather.gov. I forget which had the 90% forecast for rain on Dec 18 (the other one had it at 80%) So we didn't go that day

Personally the only weather report that I trust is the one I get when I look out the window.

Use AccuWeather.com a lot in places OTHER than Orlando. Strange that the longer range forecast never seems to be accurate in Orlando so I don't put too much emphasis on it until a day or two before.

I use http://m.accuweather.com/en/us/bay-lake-fl/32830/extended-weather-forecast/2257549

I find weather.msn.com to be surprisingly accurate when I travel to different areas.

I've had good luck with Accuweather's hourly forecasts. You really need to check the weather the day before or on the day. Weather in Florida is so just variable.
