WDW Weather Forecast - November 30-Dec 16, 2010

[mom2mickeyfan]

Dec 5 still looks like the big rain day as the front actually moves through and the high drops to around 70.

This is the day we are planning on going to MVMCP for the first time ever!! We are only going to be there for 2 days so this will be the only day we can go. Crossing my fingers that things change!!

Crossing my fingers that things change!!

That's always possible. That's why I remind folks that past 7 days the models just aren't reliable. We look at the patterns, but don't worry about anything until it's more like 5-7 days away.

[mom2mickeyfan]

Thanks Chris! I'll check again when it is closer and keep the fingers crossed until then.

Does the 6th still look like rain? That is our first day there,

I don't have all the models in yet. Check back after 11 am CST and I'll have the full update up. However, looking at the early morning models, it looks like still light rain off and on Dec 6 with a heavier rain event on Dec 8. Hopefully voodooland will look better on the afternoon models because this morning it looks like Dec 6-11 will be cold and wet with light isolated showers possible almost every day and heavier rain on Dec 8 & 10. As always, though, that's WAY into voodooland so don't worry about it just yet. I'm sure it'll all change before we get into the "safe" forecast period.

Thanks...here's hoping that the weather changes so it will it least be dry...maybe it will only rain at night....(I know, I'm delusional)

Well, as I figured, the early afternoon models gave a totally different look. I think you'll have to be patient for a couple of more days before there's a clearer picture as to what to expect. Right now it's nothing but model madness beyond 7 days. Hopefully I can sort it out for you soon.

I'll be there 12/1-8. It's 11 degrees here in Northwestern Wisconsin right now with heavy winds that make it feel like 20 below. We've got a few inches of snow on the ground. So.....You say rain on the first with high 70's - I'll take it!!!!!!!! God bless you for offering these weather forecasts. They help so much.

[Strmchsr]

God bless you for offering these weather forecasts. They help so much.

Thanks! You too. And I hope you have a wonderful trip.

Do you know what time of day the thunderstorm on the 8th should hit or is it still too far out to tell? I am still hoping it will change its mind and cooperate with me.

Thanks for the updates! I don't know what we would do without you!

[bostonsam]

The average temp for dec.is 75 and very little rain...praying not too worried

Do you know what time of day the thunderstorm on the 8th should hit or is it still too far out to tell?

Still way too early to tell. Even though I'm comfortable with making forecasts 7 days out, timing is usually not firmed up until 3-5 days out. So, I might know it's going to rain that day, but exactly when remains pretty dicey.

The average temp for dec.is 75 and very little rain.

True, that is the "average". Unfortunately, the average for WDW in December means nothing because it can flip from 60 to 80, which would give you an "average" of 70 in a 2 day span. During some of my December vacations it'll be 80-82 early in the week, the a front comes through with rain and my vacation ends with highs in the 50s. You just never know with December. With La Nina, though, as we have this year, December should be a little milder and drier.

Your forecast was spot on for our vacation last week! Thank you! You saved me from packing unnecessary "just in case" clothes

I'm so glad it was accurate. Drives me nuts when I miss a forecast. I'm so glad you had a good trip.

[2MuchWDFun]

Yay--we're 5 days from voodoo land weather forecasting for our Christmas week trip!
Can you tell I can't wait for vacation---are we there yet?
Looking forward to a wonderful weather report. Don't worry, Chris! I'm bringing more then one pair of warm socks this year, so there's no pressure.

[Disney Hungarian]

YAY!!!! My trip is finally in the voodoo cast! And it is looking good. I know that the forecast will change everyday between now and then. But, thank goodness for Chris. I can now pack and re-pack many times between now and Dec. 11th.

[Strmchsr]

Lol, you sound like my wife. She starts packing at least 2 weeks before we leave and every time the voodooland forecast changes she re-packs. I keep telling her to wait until it's in the "safe" zone but she enjoys the whole packing and re-packing thing.
