Seek shade... hah. That means WDW would need to plant trees.

Should be able to step into AC in different areas. That option has been reduced by degrees over the years.

Maybe WDW should install ball pits in select areas, remove the balls, fill with water, and call it a pool.

More trees and possibly more to clean up debris or damage to structures caused by trees down post tropical storm and or hurricane. Trees are not revenue generating expense.

BREAKING NEWS: Its hot in central Florida in July!
The heat index is over 105 where I live but life goes on. It’s the summer. It’s hot. I still have yard work to do which is much harder than walking around a theme park with air conditioned rides shows and shops to break up the day. I’ve been in July and August and it’s hot there and you have to manage it and watch out for storms etc. but if I had to choose March temps and crowds vs July temps and no crowds, I’d come in July and enjoy it

That's pretty much a trip to the ER if one does yard work in these temps. That's not a laughing matter. I have had a heat stroke before. Guests really need to hydrate throughout the day in these life threatening temps for some if one is going to the parks and spending many hours outdoors.

True... and many don't know how to manage the heat and themselves. For me my yard still grows, things still need to be done outdoors, people work for paving companies, landscape companies, road construction, and even roofing companies during the summer all over the country. It's hot, but manageable when you approach it right.

I don't see it often in parks but when my roof got replaced the temps were 95 , probably hotter on the roof. The roofers who were there for 3 days looked like ninjas from head to toe covered in clothing. I actually tried it when I did work when it got hotter in the morning. . It was actually helping me keep somewhat cooler than without it.

I was amazed to watch roofers in FL working in the summer with THICK SWEATERS ON. It was amazing!!

I had friends there for the past week and they said the heat wasn't that bad. Coming from MN, where it's been cooler and rainy as hell so far this summer, that says something.
