Going in early September

[jcldtrek]

Well finally decided I'm going in September by myself, got a good price through disney, going sept 6th to the 12th. hows the weather, parks etc in September. I always went in may or early June before, just wondering hows it there in September?

It is still very hot - and the crowds are very low. We go every year in September and wouldn't have it any other way.

The crowds will be very low so it is definitely a good time for that aspect.

Weather is hit or miss but it will most likely be very hot - possibly muggy and rainy. We have usually gone in late October in the past and decided to go early September in 2009 for free dining. I got heat stroke and it was pretty awful. I'm not used to high temps though and I am sure I didn't drink enough prior to getting sick. Just make sure you plan for high temps, drink alot! Once you get sick it doesn't really help you after the fact.

Needless to say, this year we are going in December. But I still really love the fall time of year.

You will have a blast!

We went this past Sept around the 20th and it was hot. Temps in the mid to upper 90's with heat indexes between 105 and 110. We sweat a lot but the crowd levels were low so we weren't standing in long lines a lot.

Just went September 3-10. Hot and does rain almost every day, but usually for just a short downpour then it stops. As we usually go at Christmas or in July/August, the lack of crowds was like heaven. We walked on almost every ride. Most we waited was 40 minutes at Toy Story, but otherwise it was max 5 minutes.

We were there Sept 5-15th. Although the crowds were unusually heavier than our last September trip, it still beats peak season by miles. Most waits were around 15 minutes. It's still quite warm. Our first trip in September I made the mistake of only packing jeans, won't happen again. Make sure to lather on the deodorant and drink plenty of water and you'll be just fine.

Very good info there. Weather doesn't really change until mid October. September it's still hot and humid and you will get rained on.

We went September 14th-21st of 2009 and it was very hot in the afternoons, evenings and mornings were a comfortable temp. Crowds werent too bad at all

I will say that we've been very lucky when it comes to rain, during all of our trips. On our two September trips, I'd say we've experienced rain maybe 3 times out of roughly 15 days, and those were for a few minutes each time.

if my fiance wasn't a teacher that would be my ideal time to go... I have to get used to travelling on peak times only! (damn)
