WDW Weather Forecast - November 30-Dec 16, 2012

I hoping voodoo doesn't happen. I can't believe FL will have freezing temps for the third December in a row. Guess I'll have to wait a little longer.

Definitely don't worry about it right now. Like I said in the forecast, yesterday the models were saying mid to upper 70s. The pattern this year is for below normal temps for Dec-Feb, but anything beyond 7 days all I'm doing is reporting model data, not really making a forecast, which is why I call it voodooland. Don't be surprised if it's all changed again tomorrow.

I can't believe that we are checking weather already...I can't wait! I know it's "voodoo land" but do you have projections for Dec 8-11? The last time we went in Dec it was freezing! Im hoping for 70's this trip!

The overall pattern is for below normal temps, but I think 70s is definitely likely for you. I don't see extreme cold just yet unless a big trough develops like the models were showing a couple of days ago. For now, though, it looks like cool, but not cold.

[lawgirl]

I can handle cool! I'll keep checking for your updates. Thank you so much. I've learned alot about weather from you!

I love it when my dates finally hit Chris's forecast, even if it still is too far out to really get a good idea on the weather. Thanks for all the updates Chris!

It's COLD down here! It keeps saying 70 but it's cold!! I know I'm a thin-skinned Floridian now, but even my folks form Nebraska here this week have been shocked. My dad, in his best Jaws impression, said "We're gonna need a bigger coat".
Dress warm folks- when the sun goes down it's beyond chilly!

Hey, I've been saying since August it would be colder than normal.

What Christine says is true, though. There's a lot of water around WDW and just like the water makes it feel hotter in the summer, so the moisture makes it feel cooler so when the sun goes down it will feel cooler than the ambient temp.

WooHoo! Nothing but blue skies do I see!

Nov. 28 - Dec.5!


Thanks Chris!

Ditto! Ditto!
We arrived on Thanksgiving and went to the Luau at the Poly for dinner it was windy and cold!!
Saturday was ok in the daytime but then once night hits COLD. We went to Walmart and brought thick sweats to wear for the duration of our trip

Gonna give you a week to change the heavy rain on Dec 10th. That's our first MK Park day! We know it will change two weeks out...mostly sunny and high 70's with a light breeze out of the South.

You know voodooland always changes. I definitely wouldn't be worried about it.

Thanks Chris. I'm down from 12/8-12/12 so I am loving your most recent forecast of dry and in the low to mid 70's. Sounds perfect to me!

I will keep my fingers crossed that it sticks!! Thanks as always for the info!

Us too! Same dates. Even mid 60's is sounding good to me right now! Our low tonight is supposed to be 28. I hate cold weather!

We'll be there Dec. 10th - 17th. Our first visit to Universal Islands of Adventure will be on the 12th, so I hope that if there is rain, it isn't too bad! And thanks for the updates, Chris!

Of course it's voodooland, which is always changing, but even if there is rain, it didn't look like it would last more than 2-3 hours, max.

About what time is it getting dark in WDW? It seems like its around 4:30 here. Just curious, as we will be heading to MVMCP around 5ish. Thanks!

5:28 is the earliest sunset time and that will actually occur this Sunday (Dec 1). After that sunset starts getting later again so that by Dec 31 it's up to 5:40. Of course, sunrise also gets later going from 7:01 this Sunday morning to 7:18 by Dec 31.

You know your getting close when your dates begin showing up in Chris's Forecast! I know it's still way early, BUT I'm really excited about the possible mid- 80's in the middle of our trip!
