I can't speak for the weather, but Disneystore.com has adult Disney clothes, as well as the Disney ShopParks app. To take a stab at your layering situation however, just watch the weather. North Florida to Central Florida isn't like going from Minnesota to Orlando, you're bound to be relatively close temp wise. Just use good judgement as the forecast comes into clearer shape.

There is no way to know for sure until roughly the week before your trip. We've been to WDW during November and had to wear coats. On the other hand, we just returned from our trip last week 12/24-1/1 and it was in the high 80s every day. We just kept an eye on the forecasts, and by the week before our trip we knew what to expect.

I'm in N Florida as well, and while it does get colder here more often than in Orlando, it won't be drastically different. Just plan for both situations and make a call the week before you leave. Light layers are a good idea, because temps can still get high during the day and then drop quite a bit after dark.

Your best bet is to plan on taking clothes that will do double duty! A layer during the day and a warmer jacket in the evenings! I live in PA and right now it's 11*(BUUURRR-Wishin I was in Florida, even if its colder than normal there!) and I always pack at least a light jacket with removable lining, just in case its colder than usual on some nights, I can ad the lining! Sweatshirts are good for the winter months too, lightweight are the best, but I would suggest wearing a T-Shirt under them, so if you do get warm, you can take sweatshirt off!

I've seen some cute Disney T-shirts (adult sized) at the mall Disney store and they were a LOT cheaper than WDW!

In all seriousness, though, I would definitely bring some sort of light coat, preferably with a wool inner lining or something similar. The parks were quite chilly today, even more so at dusk.

Florida does not really get cold at all even in January (native speaking here). What I consider "cold" (i.e. anything lower than 70 Fahrenheit) might be "warm" for you. I usually just wear a t-shirt and a light jacket in that case anyway.

I'm from Texas (where's it's sweltering hot in the summer and, at times, cold in the winter). One time we went in December. Even though it was close to 80 and they had heated pools, it was still too chilly for me to swim! Naturally didn't stop my kids though.

When I lived in Vermont I traveled to WDW quite often in January, February and early March. It would sometimes be cool in the morning requiring me to wear a wind breaker of sweatshirt. Only once did I need it for a whole day. Usually I wore a T and shorts. I'd walk up to the CM's at the gate and have to snicker. They would be wearing parka's, knit hats and mittens. It really depends on what you are used to. If you use a small back pack then you have a place to put the extra clothing if it gets warm, which it probably will.

You pack for the weather, simple as that. Watch the forecast closely as the time approaches

We've used the lockers a few times, works good not having to carry things around.

We went in Feb of '11 and it was in the mid 40's at night and the upper 60's-low 70's with the sun up. I found a fleece pullover sufficient for most of the time except for when we took the boat from DTD back to Pofq. Being on that water is cold!
