I agree with Linda - get a poncho and keep going! :spin:
I'm sure I read somewhere that AK is good when it rains as the animals are all quite active, so that might be worth considering...

I agree it can be downpour one minute and bright sunshine the next !

Last November we had a day where it rained on and off, we did DTD and then headed to MK with our ponchos and did all the water rides, wet enough already so it didn't make any difference!!:pgig:

Get a poncho like people say,or go shopping, there are plenty of great shopping places to visit.

I am attempting to pre-empt this by watching Accu 15 day forecast but to be honest it seems to change daily - mostly the days further ahead.
I reckon as long as we're not planning a waterpark or heaven forbid on DC day, then we will ignore the rain and carry on with our plan! *Fingers crossed*
Shopping is always good too .

We've never had a day totally washed out by rain (pardon the pun :D )
We always have our ponchos at the ready if it looks like rain. Then if it does persist down, take shelter til its blown over.
Shopping malls or DisneyQuest would be a last resort - everyone else would probably have the same idea!

Ponchos are good, never had a whole day washed out in Florida, it soon dry's up too! Stay at the parks as some people do leave and the parks become quieter, what's a bit of water anyway, you'll soon dry out.
A poncho is a good idea, just get on with it even if it rains! If there is a long spell of rain forcast DTD and DisneyQuest is a good idea.

Once we were at BB when there was a huge enormous downpour (honestly I have never seen anything like it) and all the rides closed. We went and got some lunch before we decided what to do and the rain cleared up and the sun came out as a result all the rides were walk ons and everyone had a really good time. So my advice would be give it a bit of time maybe things will clear up

If it was to rain all day that would give me the perfect excuse to go shopping all day:d:

Gat a poncho on and carry on as normal. If it stays wet you could always leave the park and go shopping.
