The fall season might be here, but the Florida weather wants to say otherwise!
Magic Kingdom
If you’ve got a Disney World trip planned for the weekend, you’re going to want to pack a few essential items for both rain and shine. It may be fall, but it looks like the humid heat and stormy weather are both returning to Orlando this weekend. Let’s take a look at what we know and what to expect.
We’ve been feeling the weather start to cool down a little bit, making Disney days so much easier. However, the National Weather Service says heat indices could reach the low 100s by Friday, October 2nd. This is due to the high pressure building over the Florida peninsula, which is pushing moisture back into the area.
Spaceship Earth
On October 1st, rain chances are looking like 40-60%. Those chances increase to 50-70% on Friday. Expect storms each afternoon, with frequent lightning, gusty winds, and heavy downpours. As for the heat, the afternoon highs will reach the upper 80s to low 90s on both Thursday and Friday. The peak heat periods will see temperatures between 98 and 103 degrees.
Tree of Life
Saturday and Sunday won’t be as bad as Friday. Rain and storm chances will drop compared to what we’ll see on Friday. Afternoon highs will stay in the upper 80s to low 90s, but the lows will be in the low to mid 70s. Don’t expect it to be perfect, and don’t expect NO rain. There still will be showers, but just not as harsh.
Tower of Terror
Next week, we won’t have to deal with the summer heat at Disney World as much anymore. A cold front is on the way and will reach north-central Florida by Tuesday, October 6th. Moisture and rain chances will increase again, so still be prepared for that.
Cinderella Castle
If you are going to Disney World this weekend, you need to make sure you pack the essentials. Water bottles are important for every season, and we can’t stress that enough. When it’s hot, stay hydrated! Mini fans and cooling towels are also great ways to stay cool during the heat. Umbrellas, shoe coverings, and stroller coverings are things you should have with you as well, as the storms roll in.
