For those of us leaving in the next couple of days, how is the weather and crowd situation?!

Many thanks!

If its any help, when I left on Tuesday it seemed crowd levels were picking up. All I can say is avoid EMH, Spectro, or Fantasmic days and you should be fine. We found those were the absolute worst times to head to those parks! As long as we stayed away from those times, we walked on to almost every ride.

I was just in Hollywood Studios yesterday. The crowds were unmanagable and the Fastpasses for Toy Story were all gone before 2pm!

Of course it was raining so everyone probably decided to go there at the same time. But when we went to MK on Sunday it was the same issue. No way to get on anything in Fantasyland without a long wait.
My girls walked right onto Splash Mountain with no wait twice in a row though. All we were able to do was watch the parade, ride Splash and meet Tinkerbell (more about THAT later )

We have been here since the 27th and usually the days have been cold and windy, but not many crowds. More than we had two years ago around the same time of year though.

We were at EP yesterday after 4 PM and walked on to Nemo, Turtle Talk, Circle of Life, Liv w/ the Land, FP'ed Soarin ( standby time was 25 min). FPs were still avail at 6 PM.
Today at AK there was a 10 min standby for EE at 10AM. The crowds were great. We showed ip at nemo show 10 min prior to start and got right in. Same thing for FOTLK.
Superbowl Sunday for us was awesome. We did FL at RD...no waits at all. Evening was great too. 10 Min wait for Buzz.

My advice, arrive at RD if U can. Avoid DHS ok F! Nights.

We stayed from 1/29-2/2 and I was pleasantly surprised by the lack of crowds/lines. The weather was just ok, rainy or cloudy and we had to wear heavy sweatshirts at night, but I think this kept the crowds away. We walked on almost everything our first day, and picked up fast passes on the weekends. Sunday was the busiest day, and I attribute this to crowds that came in for the superbowl. I think less busses are running due to the off season, but everything else was wonderful!!! I wish I was going back, enjoy
