Weather Guide
The Orlando and Kissimmee-St. Cloud region typically offers
warm sunny days and mild nights.
The average summer temperatures (May-August) vary between the low 90s ºF
in the day to the low 70s ºF at night. For the most part, visitors
can expect warm, beautiful weather year-round.
Winter temperatures (October–February) average in the low's 70s
ºF during the day while night time temperature average is in the low
50s ºF.
During the summer season, the Central Florida weather is very
tropical.
The summer months are the most humid and have the most rainfall, but
expect lots of sunshine between the rain and clouds.
Expect an average daytime high of 70
ºF
December through February,
which are generally considered dryer and cooler.
During the warmer months, June through September, temperatures and
humidity both remain high, but the heat is frequently cooled by an
afternoon thunderstorm.
March, April, May, October and November are delightful months with
an average daytime high of 80
ºF.
Hurricanes
As we have seen over the last few years, Orlando can be prone to the
occasional hurricanes. The 'season' is from July until November.
They 'normally' don't provide much more than very heavy rainfall.
Some though have been a little more destructive...
If you are involved in a 'bad weather' situation, contact your
Accommodation Management, Holiday Company Representative or Villa
Owner Management Company for more information.

Clothing
For your comfort, make sure that you pack comfortable walking shoes
(you could explain a vacation to Theme Parks as a 'walking vacation'
- you will walk for many miles!), suntan
lotion, bathing suit and a light jacket.
Ladies may want to keep a long sleeve cardigan in the car. Some days
the difference between the outside temperature and an
air-conditioned restaurant or shopping centre can be enough to give
you a chill. Gent's may want to keep a sweat shirt handy. Something
similar for the kids is always a good idea to have handy.
--- --- Smoke
Yes, 'Smoke' ...
In the dry and thundery times brush fires can, and very often do,
start. Especially to the West of the Kissimmee area.
Never a threat to you or your villa directly, but they can cause great clouds of smoke
in the morning.
They don't clear until the wind
picks up after the sun starts to come through in the
mid-morning.
They can cause traffic congestion and have been known, on rare
occasions, to close
Disney until lunch time.
If you are staying out at the West end of US Hwy 192 in the US Hwy
27 region... Don't be too alarmed by the faint smell of smoke in the
morning. A quick look around your villa and a check that the smoke
smell is also outside before calling for help.
You are generally safe but be careful driving in these conditions.
Watch out that you don't accidentally leave your lights on after
driving in smoke. Our British editor did this once and had a flat
battery to contend with later that day after leaving them left on at
Epcot... (it was me.)
