“If you don’t like the weather in Orlando, wait 10 minutes, it will change.” That’s the conventional wisdom, but it isn’t always the case. What is true is that the weather in central Florida can be quite unpredictable. Funnel clouds near Epcot are not unusual. This can be difficult if you’re planning a vacation to theme parks in Orlando, as you’ll probably be booking your trip months, if not years in advance, and there’s just no way to know what the weather is going to be like once you’re there until it’s too late.
I recently visited Universal Orlando Resort to check out the holiday season festivities for the first time, and the weather did not cooperate. While the actual day that most of the holiday events started was dry enough, I had some time to myself to visit the parks the day before that and found myself with the choice to either brave the rain or stay in my hotel room all day.
