When to Go Future Crowds 2010 Weeks 2010 Week Picker App 2011 Weeks
OVERVIEW
Summer at Walt Disney World—loosely defined as Memorial Day in late May through Labor Day in early September–is an often difficult season.
The weather is hot and humid, and in mid-August shifts to hot, humid, and the peak of the hurricane season.
Crowds are very high most of the summer–lightest in the latter part of August, and also a little lighter in early June. They peak over the Fourth of July holiday.
Prices begin fairly high, peak over the Fourth of July weekend, and drop to their lowest level of the year at the Deluxes in mid-July, and at the Moderates and Values in mid August.
Deals and discounts are available for this period.

Winter/Spring tornadoes are a particular threat.

OVERVIEW: THE MOST COMFORTABLE TIME TO VISIT WALT DISNEY WORLD

I am publishing both series at the same time to help those who are looking for bargains and deals on some things, so that they can spend more on others!! Links to everything in these two series are at the bottom of the page.
