Disneyland Weather Report for May 16 from @WDW_Weather - (DL) (5/16/2012)

A relatively warm day once we get rid of that morning fog as temperatures rise to about 80 degrees.  Nothing too exciting to report today though as the rest of the week looks very similar with some fluctuations in temperature very possible.  Tomorrow looks to only top out in the mid 70s with it getting even a little cooler the following day before we rebound as we head into the weekend.

Lows will get down into the mid to upper 50s throughout the period.

Walt Disney World Weather Report for May 16 from @WDW_Weather - (DL) (5/16/2012)

Once again thunderstorms appear likely today and even into tomorrow.  Some seriously severe weather impacted areas near Daytona yesterday so this is a pattern everyone needs to be aware of.  Looks like most of the morning will be fair - we could see patches of sunshine before noon as temperatures fire up into the mid 80s though the more sun then the more storms that WILL fire up.  Thanks to some high clouds in the area - we may limit heating just a bit (which would be good).

The pattern looks to continue into tomorrow but we can expect a little more sunshine.  Thunderstorms can once again be expected sometime after noon though later afternoon looks more likely.

It looks like shower activity will diminish just a bit as we head into the weekend but the chance for thunder is still very possible.

Could the wet season be upon us :-)?

TPAC Receives One of the First After-School Creativity Grants from Disney - (DL) (5/16/2012)

The Tennessee Performing Arts Center has been named one of the first recipients of an after-school creativity grant from Disney.  The $75,000 award will be used to develop sustainable theatre programs in Metro Nashville Public Schools, building on work that began when TPAC was selected as the first organization outside of New York City to offer the Disney Musicals in Schools outreach program.

Disneyland Weather Report for May 15 from @WDW_Weather - (DL) (5/15/2012)

I apologize for the lack of updates while storms were causing some problems throughout Central Florida.  Mother Nature decided to cause some problems in my back yard as well and thanks to a tremendous amount of rain over night – a sinkhole opened and swallowed the electric transformer that provides power to my place.  So these are going to be lean and mean this week – and for that like I said, I apologize.

Onshore flow looks to keep temperatures a little lower than they “should” be for this time of year but I’d expect plenty of clearing throughout the day so an outdoor lunch sounds simply lovely as highs top out in the low to mid 70s. 

The rest of the forecast sounds like the movie Groundhog Day as clouds roll in, the temperature drops down to about 58 and then here we go again for your Wednesday which looks just like Tuesday though promises to be a couple of degrees warmer.

Most models are in agreement that today will be the wettest day of the week with thunderstorms at some point during the day likely.  Plan on waking up to mostly cloudy skies and then soon after noon expect some showers to start – though I wouldn’t rule out that precipitation getting here sooner rather than later.

Highs are forecasted to make it into the mid 80s but with all the clouds they may top out in the low 80s depending on those environmental factors.  Lows will barely drop into the 60s and then rebound again back up towards 90 thanks to the added sunshine that is expected for Wednesday.

Expect highs in the upper 80s for the rest of the week.

And just when you put the thought of tropical weather out of your mind the Eastern Pacific Tropical Season started a day early with the official naming of Tropical Storm Aletta.  The official start for the Eastern Pacific season is May 15th while the Atlantic Season officially starts June 1.

Towards the end of last week a few computer models even had the Atlantic Season firing up a bit early but later runs have backed off on that (which is good news because Florida looked to potentially be impacted).  Should something form now, it will likely head straight out to sea.

Tropical weather is something everyone should be aware of when planning a Disney vacation in the summer.  This is one of the most fascinating parts of meteorology and why I became involved in the first place so if you are looking for up to the minute tropical weather when it is relevant follow me on Twitter this season @WDW_Weather.

Disneyland Weather Report for May 14 from @WDW_Weather - (DL) (5/14/2012)

Once again the afternoons are looking good this week but with lack of internet I'm just giving you today.

Cloudy start with highs in the mid 70s...more sun later in the afternoon. 

Walt Disney World Weather Report for May 14 from @WDW_Weather - (DL) (5/14/2012)

Internet is down kids so not a great start to the week. So we will keep this quick. Warm and humid with a high of about 85 with a chance for a thunderstorm.

Marvel's The Avengers to Cross $1 Billion Globally in 19 Days - (DL) (5/14/2012)

Marvel’s The Avengers was expected to cross the $1 billion threshold at the global box office on May 13, its 19th day in release, The Walt Disney Studios has announced. This is the first Marvel Studios film and the fifth Walt Disney Studios release to reach this important milestone.

Disneyland Weather Report for the May 4th Weekend from @WDW_Weather - (DL) (5/4/2012)

Well we got through that mess didn’t we?  As a trying week throughout Southern Florida weather-wise comes to an end Mother Nature gives us a bit of a warming trend.  Once again it looks like things will start of cloudy with that marine layer sticking around but we should see some sunshine before all is said and done by the time we get to lunchtime.  I expect highs will be warmer today than they have been all week and would go with a top out temperature somewhere in the low 70s warming into the mid 70s by the time Sunday rolls around.

The set up through the weekend is the same with cloudy mornings giving way to sunny afternoons.  Lows will get down into the mid 50s each night as clouds once again roll in.

Looking FAR out into the future (and who really wants to think about Mondays on a weekend), we may flirt with 80 into early next week.  Enjoy!

Walt Disney World Weather Report for the May 4th Weekend from @WDW_Weather - (DL) (5/4/2012)

Well we did it – we sure did – managed to hit the big nine zero yesterday and it looks like we’ll do it again today and the official high may actually top that by a degree!  Going officially for 91 today under mostly sunny skies and keeping that mention of a thundershower out of the forecast but that will change as we head into the weekend.  That said it looks like the sea breeze boundaries could collide somewhere west of the city of Orlando so we can’t rule out that shifting a bit.

Similar conditions to what we’ve seen the last couple of days look to last right on through Monday with highs in the upper 80s to even 90.  The only difference is that as we go into the weekend it looks like we’ll have to pop up the chance for a pop up thundershower or two in the afternoon.  Does it feel like summer yet J?

Looking ahead to Sunday it does look like a frontal boundary may make things a little less stable in the atmosphere meaning that Sunday afternoon does look like the best bet for a stray shower or two.  I will update latest model runs on Twitter like I always do on weekends so if you are in the Central Florida area and want some updates follow me @WDW_Weather.

So … who’s going to be at Amway Arena tonight for the big Nickelback show  Anyone?  Have a  great weekend everyone – and Bottoms Up! (Speaking of how could I forget Happy Cinco friends - see ya in Epcot!)

Disneyland Weather Report for May 2 from @WDW_Weather - (DL) (5/3/2012)

Now this is starting to get a little bit ridiculous right?  I know I know I understand and I completely agree with you.  Another day starts out with an extremely deep marine layer leaving us with the chance for some drizzle this morning during the commute.  By the time we get to lunch some peeks of sun will try to make an appearance but with all the cloud cover highs will struggle to get much past the mid 60s. 

I wish I had better news but it looks like conditions are going to continue to be similar to this for the next few days though I don’t think we will see AS deep of a marine layer as we have the last couple of days.

Temperatures may warm just a bit as we head into the weekend and we could hit 70 by Sunday.

Walt Disney World Weather Report for May 2 from @WDW_Weather - (DL) (5/3/2012)

I’ve been trying not to type the “9” for the last few days but it looks like that might be rather futile today into tomorrow.  What do I mean?  Well after topping out at 88 yesterday afternoon it looks like we will beat that today and hit the big 9-0!  Think that is warm?  We could beat that temperature tomorrow.  Factor in the humidity with those rising dew points and please make sure you and the entire family stays hydrated at the parks this weekend!

It doesn’t look like there should be any widespread showers the next few days but with these warming temperatures and moist atmosphere as we head towards the weekend we have to tweak up the percentage for a shower or storm.  Lows will barely get into the 60s tomorrow morning.  Those winds are going to pick up again in the nighttime hours and could gust up towards about 20 miles per hour.

Mostly sunny skies continue tomorrow and it looks like it will be a great night for a show downtown!  So … who’s going to Nickelback tomorrow night J?

Disneyland Weather Report for May 2 from @WDW_Weather - (DL) (5/2/2012)

So, who is getting tired of this morning drizzle?  (show of hands) I wish I had some better news for you – but it looks like this is the pattern we are in for much of the rest of the week unfortunately.  The good news is that it looks like the sun may make a much-needed appearance somewhere after the lunchtime hour and with that – the glass is half full!  The marine layer remains thick through tomorrow.

Highs will continue their below average trend as they struggle to get up into the mid 60s thanks to those clouds. A gradual warming trend as we head into the weekend and like I said above the conditions should improve by the time we get to Friday.  This glass is half empty forecast is that it looks like this pesky pattern may continue right on into early next week.

Walt Disney World Weather Report for May 2 from @WDW_Weather - (DL) (5/2/2012)

Looks like yet another windy day is in store out there throughout Walt Disney World and the Sunshine State in general.  Winds could once again gust as high as 25 miles per hour so it could impact that wonderful character balloon in Downtown Disney so my advice would be to call ahead or check Twitter for updates.  Another warm day will be expected as highs stretch into the upper 80s (officially going for about 87), but we heat up even more tomorrow!

To give you an idea of where we are stacking up we managed to make it to 87 yesterday and the average high is roughly 85 – so we are doing a bit warmer than “normal”.  That said the record for yesterday was 96 and we hit that way back in 1917 so – I guess we’ve got a ways to go.  We won’t break any records today or tomorrow but it will likely be warmer as we head into the weekend.  In fact you can expect highs in the upper 80s through Sunday it looks like.

A few showers were rolling on shore yesterday afternoon around Melbourne and just kind of died out as they trekked too far inland to bother us though as you headed into South Florida you would have run into some shower activity on I-95.  Shower activity looks to pick up with the heat so afternoon showers are possible throughout the rest of the week. 

This is kind of a throw away ling but lows will only get down into the mid 60s and that’s about as low as they will get and those lows will actually raise as we head into the weekend.

So it goes without saying to make sure you and your family are hydrated this weekend at the parks as we flirt with 90.
