Can anyone recommend the most accurate weather app or website for the WDW area please?

Thanks!

I use accuweather but could be better so waiting to see if anyone has suggestions 😉

Joan has both Accuweather and the Weather Channel on her phone.

But bear in mind that Florida is a sub-tropical climate and any forecast beyond 5 days is rarely to be relied on. If it says there's a 50% chance of rain in the area during the day it can mean clear blue skies in MK and pouring down in EPCOT. Depending on the time of year that 50% chance could also be a full afternoon of rain or simply a 20 minute thunderstorm.

Weather forecasts out there beyond that are based on historic statistics. They often get cold front forecasts correct though but maybe only +/- 12 hour accuracy.

Thank you! It’s for us to use when we get there rather than to check the weather now... thanks for the hints and advice!

Have a look at Dark Sky. Very accurate last time we used it in Florida. Also Rain Alarm was helpful also.

I’ve been using accuweather over the last 2 weeks and it’s been pretty good

I have always used The Weather Channel here and in Florida, usually pretty accurate 👍
