To cool down or to nap?

clearly both

 

[monothingie]

It's going to be in the MID 90's TODAY and throughout the week.

I hope you all appreciate that extra 2-4 degrees of coldness.

I understand the winter jackets, mittens, and hats are being stocked in stores throughout the property.

To cool down or to nap?

Ah YES! Comfortable seats, dark theaters, nice and cool..... Zzzzzzzzz

 

[Ayla]

I see what you did there. Intentional derail, very nice.

Both COP and HOP should remain!!!!!

HOP should just get it’s updates as POTUS’s come and go

COP should get its usual technology updates, but ALL animatronics should be fully updated with the latest and the last scene should be updated to better represent present day.

Saying it's time to visit longer, air-conditioned attractions in a thread about heat isn't an intentional derail.

Yes, I get it now. COP and HOP are two of my favorite get out of the heat attractions. American Adventure also high on the list.

I've seen fellow guests chill out on the AA second floor overlooking the rotunda where Voices of Liberty perform on the first floor. Its private and a place to catch a snooze.

Why not both ?

 

[ToTBellHop]

Feels like normal August today, at least.

NASA now saying a volcano is to blame.

Tonga Eruption Blasted Unprecedented Amount of Water Into Stratosphere - NASA

The huge amount of water vapor hurled into the atmosphere, as detected by NASA’s Microwave Limb Sounder, could end up temporarily warming Earth’s surface.

2x-3x a day rainstorms , sweating and soaking wet at the same time?

No, I meant for a nice long classic attraction with AC.

We need a 20 minute Navi River Journey with BarcaLounges.

Didn’t actually rain today. Last time I saw rain was 8 days ago. Never had that before in August at Disney.

But it was only 93 today!

 

[SamusAranX]

Today was relatively better. A lot of cloud cover at Epcot. Still hot, but not drop dead hot like the last two weeks.

And really good AC

 

[DisneyCane]

Yea, I think during normal years the rain and clouds stop the heat before it can get too hot. But, during this year, we haven’t gotten much rain at all. There also aren’t as many clouds as there usually are without the rain, so the sunlight warms it up even more.

Possible. We're getting a lot of rain in Southeast Florida and it's still been very hot and humid.

That’s crazy! Could be because of the ocean temps too. All of our grass is dying because we haven’t gotten a drop of rain for two weeks. It sprinkled a little today, but no noticeable precip for a while. (Due to scattered showers, some other areas have gotten closer to a normal amount of rain)

All the years we visited in August, rains daily especially in afternoons.

Yes, it’s been different. I can’t think of visits any month of the year without rain for 8 days.
