Weather in August

phanham · 06-12-2008

My family and I are going to Disney at the end of August and I was wondering just how hot it is there in August.

**DisneyTeacher** · 06-12-2008

Welcome to MouseBuzz!

It's VERY hot (mid 90s) and humid in August. Also expect some rain every day.

lisalovesmickey · 06-12-2008

I agree with D. Teacher. We were there in August and it was HOT! It did rain everyday BUT it was one downpour that lasted 5 - 15 minutes and it was fine the rest of the day. Also it rained between 2 and 4 pm.

EXTREMELY hot and humid! The rain does help cool things off a bit...so don a poncho and keep on going!

BTW, welcome to MB!

Hot, Hot, hot! And oh so humid.
Plan on a break midday for a refreshing swim, to keep your sanity! lol

HI, just wanted to say welcome.

We'll be down there at the end of August also. Looking forward to the HOT weather!

I was looking forward to it, too! Afterall, it's practically just as hot here in New York and I'd MUCH rather be hotter than heck while at WDW!

I've been the last 3 years at the end of August and it is definitely hot but generally not as terrible as I expected. Just be sure to take plenty of breaks inside and drink lots of water. And when you start to hit that hot, tired wall, take a break! Last year my roommates and I were out of the resort for 15 hours on one day and it was so hot that by the end of the day we were cranky and miserable. We would have been fine if we took a break.

We were there last August, and I agree, it was hot and humid, but its hot and humid here in August too. Take advantage of the extra magic hours in the mornings and evenings if you can, and plan on taking breaks. We like to have a lunch scheduled everyday, or a late breakfast, so we are assured of an air conditioned break. :)

Also, we go back to our room for the better portion of the afternoon.

I know its been said but HOT, HOT, HOT & HUMID! You need lots of water, & A/C breaks

Welcome to MB. It is very very very hot and humid. Plan on purchasing some spray water bottle fans. They make a big difference.

Oh definitely! We love ours. We fill them with ice and water. They are great.

MickeyEars · 06-12-2008

It's Hotter than Hot; but I'll be there again at the end of August this year with DH. Plan on drinking lots of water, taking breaks and if you can fit it in, enjoy the waterparks...they're AWESOME!! Have a great time on your trip.

Caseys Corner · 06-12-2008

Hazey Hot and Humid!

**Dana** · 06-12-2008

Welcome to mousebuzz! This will be there second year that I am going to WDW the last week of august. It's hot...no doubt, but you can manage it if you tour smartly. I go to the parks in the early mornings, take a break around lunch and go back out around dinner when it cools down a bit. Keep hydrated with tons of water and stay out of the heat between 1 and 4pm....it's nasty then.
