who is ok with the horrid heat in september?
hi,
wife and I have beaten ourselves to death whether to continue this year to do disney during free dining in september or go in winter or early spring to escape the heat and humidity.
only drawback is we love the waterparks,wet rides and a couple of quick beach trips which are not guaranteed with weather in winter or early spring.
we would hate to have cold weather or have to wear jackets when we visit.

I am, but then I live in Houston, in Sept we are usually hotter than WDW is.

DH and I agree with you, we went the last week of Sept one year for free dining and almost melted. So last year we went the last week of October and there was a heat wave, so it was pretty warm then as well. This year we are going the week after Thanksgiving so we will see...
DH and I went for a long weekend in late Feb, and the weather in Florida was something like the 2nd coldest winter in Florida history. Seriously-late Feb early March I was wearing an undershirt, turtleneck, t-shirt, heavy sweater, gloves, jeans, warm sock and gym shoes-all at once! I probably could have used another layer.
I guess you just never know-but for us I would rather be in the sunny cooler weather than the stifling heat-I'm just a wuss, and I get sun poisoning at the drop of a hat.
We do love going in the Fall, we really enjoy the weather and MNSSHP.
Have fun, not matter what you decide!

We almost always go in the summer. Sure it is hot but there are always ways to beat the heat. Taking a break back to your resort to go swimming during the hottest part of the afternoon is one of the easiest ways to beat it. Also keeping hydrated is another must do.
We have been in October and been almost as hot. For us, being hot at Disney is almost a right of passage!

I'm from south Louisiana so Florida heat is nothing.I just went to WDW in February and it was freezing.After that trip I'll take the heat anyday.lol

Compared to July, September is sweater weather!

I love it!! We live in Maine and once September gets here you know the cold and snow isn't far behind. My husband drives an oil delivery truck so we can't go in the dead of winter, but if we can stretch summer just a little longer by going to HOT Florida, I'm all for it!!

We go in July or August and I love it! It makes my life so much easier when it comes to packing - we never need pants or jackets!

I love it too! The heat doesn't bother me a bit, especially since so many of the line areas are either shaded or air conditioned. We just stay hydrated and duck into a shop or restaurant for a moment if we need to cool down.

I love the heat. It doesn't bother me at all.

It's September for me! The heat and humidity is usually manageable - last September was hotter and more humid than previous years but FL was warmer than norm. Went one year in October and we had to wear light jackets. If I wanted to do that I would've stayed home. Going in September is a perfect ending to our summer. It's hit or miss with the weather. Sometimes when we come home it's 90 degrees in Chicago.

Our first three trips to WDW were in August, it was so hot and humid we were rating the rides for how long you stayed in the air conditioning.
We went in January this year and they had record breaking lows. We loved it and plan to go again January 2011.
It's a very different trip in winter months, but both times of year are great...I just love WDW!

We make our annual trek from PA to WDW mid-to-late September and, honestly, the temps rarely bother us. We have just gotten through the worst of our summer weather and are pretty well acclimated to the heat and humidity. That said, we take lots of indoor breaks and stay hydrated, break in the middle of the day for some pool time, and keep going until the parks close.

I like the hot weather. Yes, you need to slow down and air conditioned spots do feel good but it's also nice to feel like it really is summer!

I used to be ok with the September heat, but not so much over the last few years. Now I try to stick with October & November, Nov preferred.

Love the temps in September!!! Last year was a bit on the humid side but we still really enjoyed it!! We love to go to the water parks at this time of year!! The crowds are so much more manageable this time of year.

I actually love Disney in September and wish we could go then still. DD is getting ready to start high school, so pulling her out for Disney trips is pretty much out of the question. We now go in July, and we melt, but survive.
I say go in September, pack your shorts and swim stuff, and enjoy the free dining!
