Rain on 05-05-05

[Soulquarian]

The forecast for Southern California on May 5th is a good chance of rain, and definite rain on Friday. Does anyone know how this will affect Disney's plans? Perhaps it may affect your plans as well?

[Ortizmo2000]

I won't be going until the 15th, so......LET IT RAIN BABY!!

[mrmainstreet]

Yep. If it rains, then my stores will be even more torn apart than they would otherwise on the 5th. Guests are so much messier when it rains.

[Disneyphile]

Sweet!! Less crowded.

I love the rain. But, only as long as is lets up for the parades and fireworks.

[~*~Aniko~*~]

it says 40% chance of showers and cloudy . . .

so hopefully it won't rain . . .

cuz if it rains . . . then no fireworks and then ill cry

[MasterGracey]

The rain would be a double-edged sword. On one hand it would clear out a lot of people leavingthe park less crowded and easier to manuever, but it would affect plans for the Parade and Fireworks.

Maybe we can just ask the weather man for rain in the morning and afternoon and then clear skies for the rest of the evening? I dont mind missing the parade so much, I just wanna see the fireworks!

Radio reports this morning were for a "slim chance" of rain for Thursday.

It's southern California... Don't sweat it until it starts to sprinkle. I went to the park just last week when they were saying a 70% chance of rain for the evening in the morning newscast, and I never saw a drop.

[Soulquarian]

I hope it doesn't rain, because the parade is AWESOME. I normally am pretty passive towards them but after the preview last night, I can't wait to see it again. And don't even get me started on the fireworks!!!!!

Bad News Forecast

OK folks, bad news. A more recent forcast shows that we will have Occassional rain tapering into showers later in the evening. A quarter of an inch is expected, with winds of around 10-15mph. The chance of rain is 80%! On the flip side, their is a chance that the rain my stop by the time it gets late enough to do the fireworks, however, it might be too cloudy to see...

[PumpkinKing!]

Yeah very bad news but hey its SoCal so who knows, the sun still could come out by noon!

[eyes_of_mara]

I think that the Parade of Dreams attracts rain... It rained on the day they shot the commercial footage.

80% chance, indeed.


I really hope this is all just a fluke and its nice and sunny. I want to see the parade and the fireworks! Usually, I wouldnt care about them, but this time I really want to see it all!

[swagdaddy]

Nooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Modern Folly]

I'm not going, but I really do hope that the forecast will be wrong...i've never trusted those forecasts.

[sunnygirl]

I'm all for the rain! In fact, if it doesn't rain, we probably won't go...Cause it'll be jam packed.

[Mr Snappy]

As long as it is gone by Sunday when I arrive

[daddyb]

I like my churros a little bit soggy. Easier to gum them down when my dentures are killing me.


ok, I'm not THAT old.

There's just something about where Disneyland is situated that keeps the majority of rain out. I like to think it's God honoring what Walt wanted to do... bring families together in an age when families are breaking apart more and more.

But it's gotta' rain sometime. Otherewise, when would we get to see the rainbows? Please, if you don't like getting wet, don't come tomorrow. We don't need grumpy wet people in the park on this special day. Just us happy, wet, shiny people, please!

[ksejr1]

i think the fireworks will be cancelled if it's really windy i hope not

[woxel1]

80% chance, indeed.

This weather prediction will probably come half-true. I had a Disneyland trip planned a couple of months ago, and rain was predicted just like it is now (though the weather then was worse). Well, it did rain, but only sporadically and for very short periods of time. On the other hand, the clouds were dramatic and the sunset was beautiful. With that said, I wouldn't expect to see a fireworks show tomorrow.

RAin, rain go away come again another day...
