Weather Obsessive
Hey any of you all like me in that you check the weather several times a day when you are closing in on your trip to Disney World?
I love it when I can see days with sunshine. I am not sure who is more accurate, if either. Weather.com or Accuweather.com So far I am liking Accuweather because their outlook looks better. Which is not the criteria to go by judging, but how accuarate they are. Of course no matter what the weather, I always have fun. Been in outright pouring rain, standing in 5in of water and still had fun. But I like the dry weather better.

Re: Weather Obsessive
I do it even if I don't have a trip planned. Orlando is one of the weather "presets" on my desktop!

Re: Weather Obsessive
I check most every day too! But it is so much more exciting when I am checking for my own trip (although last year it was more like depressing as we saw the temps go from mid 70-s to low 50-s the day we got there.)

But to be fair...Dana is "totally obsessed" with everything about her trips.......I did say everything didn't I?   And no Dana I'm not saying it's a bad thing.........just making a clarification that you are "totally obsessed" with everything about your trips. I did say everything again didn't I? OK good.

Re: Weather Obsessive
We are extrememly weather conscious with a trip coming on. Gotta pack the ponchos. last trip lil brer and I decided to hit the water parks when it was predicted for a day of rain. There were no crowds and we rode everything 5 or 6 times non-stop. Go to a water park in the rain - nobody is there.
Right now we are anxiously watching the weather with less than 7 days to go to WDW at Christmas. We can't wait.
