Hi all,
Just got back from a 3 week holiday to Florida and now planning our next trip back. However in order to fit with my wife’s work commitments (newly qualified teacher) we are limited to taking holidays during the school breaks. We are therefore looking to go back to Florida for 4 weeks during August 2007.
Our main concern is the weather. We have no problem with the heat – it was 94F whilst we were just over there and we (plus the 2 kids) loved it. I think temps during the summer are generally the same but it’s the humidity that worries me. Is it really that bad?
We are looking to stay the first 2 weeks on the Gulf Coast (Indian Rocks Beach) and the second two weeks in Orlando (US kids go back to school mid August so parks should be a bit quieter). We've done the theme parks to death during previous visits so the 2007 trip will be much less theme park orientated and more 'relaxation' based ie beaches, walks, fishing, canoeing etc.
Anyways I would be grateful for any advice/reports from anyone who has been there at this time on what we could expect weather wise during August. I realise that it would be prime hurricane season, however I’m prepared to accept this risk…..it’s the normal weather conditions that worry me a bit.
Thanks in advance.
