Most of our trips have been in that time frame due to time constraints: is as hot as you think plus a lot more. :D But it is manageable if you have a game plan. We RD, take break in middle back at hotel/pool, park later in evening after early dinner.

It is really hot. And you can't get as much done because you need more breaks in a/c and more bathroom breaks if you're hydrating enuf. But it absolutely can be fun if planned well!

We did June and are doing it again. Yes it's very hot so you need to do outdoor stuff early and then shoes and indoor rides after 11 or use LL for outdoor stuff. Cut through gift shops etc. just don't expect to be able to go all day. You will want to just

Relax at the pool. Crowds are on the lower side so with good planning you can get a lot done.

We did mid-June last year, and it was really fine. Use LLs to minimize waiting time, duck into AC often, drink plenty water (with electrolytes at times), put on and reapply sunscreen, and just accept that you'll be sweaty as soon as you leave the room.

I wouldn't say it's totally miserable but we found that we can't do or enjoy nearly as much when there in that heat

Before we moved down here we would go in July nearly every year-it all depends on your health. Regardless you do have to stay hydrated-

At 3:30ish We go back for nap, swim, rest until about 5:30. And return to Parks. Now that DD30 it's easier to take it slower than when she was in college. When littles we RD-11:30a back for swimming, to Parks after dinner. When open until 11pm

It's hot, but definitely manageable. You will need a break of some sort midday. Depending on kids, maybe a long TS lunch, maybe a pool break, maybe both. When DD was young, we'd RD, TS lunch, pool, back to park around 4:30 or so, stay till close.

Now w DD older, we still do TS lunch and may or may not take a pool break. When MK was open till 11:00 or EMH till 1:00 am, it was easier to take long midday breaks.

Depends in large part on your heat tolerance from the previous 4-6 weeks at home. My DD has zero heat tolerance so we are switching to a July cruise with only 3 WDW park days, just to hit our old favorites.

For us, especially DH, it's just too hot. Even though Christmas and Easter are more expensive, we prefer it to the heat. We get more accomplished during the cooler months.

We've done fine in July. We do sit down lunch in a/c, lots of water, ice cream, air conditioned shows/rides/shopping. I think it depends on your group. If anyone is super sensitive/cranky in heat & humidity it might be tough.
