ubiquitous Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 What's the weather usually like there in early/mid Sept? My family and I are planning a trip to the House of Mouse around that time, and I wanted to see what a typical Fall day might be like; I haven't been to SoCal in a few years, and the last time I was there (mid-Oct 2005) it was rainy and kinda chilly Might have been one of those atypical exceptions, though (at least, that's what I'm thinking). Just looking for a general idea of what to expect... Thanks much, //ubi
Guest avitt Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Recalling all of the September Saturdays spent roasting on my daughters' soccer fields, I think you'll find the month to be quite hot in the OC, Ubi. The winter rains don't typically start until Nov. Evenings can be cool year round, so bring light jackets.
ubiquitous Posted March 31, 2010 Author Report Posted March 31, 2010 Thanks, T! Sounds like Sept may be a good time to go then...
HauteHippie Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Days will probably be in the 80s, and feel 5-8 degrees warmer than what you're used to due to extra humidity. Nice and toasty, usually. A few days at the parks (Disney and California Adventure), and a day or two at the coast (Laguna Beach, Newport Beach are easy driving distance) makes a very enjoyable vacation for that time of year!
redwatch Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Hmmmm......so September SoCal GTG??? Think you can fit in a visit R? Oh, and Sept/Oct tend to be the some of the hottest months in SoCal, so it must of been an off time when you came last.
ubiquitous Posted March 31, 2010 Author Report Posted March 31, 2010 Ahhh... I'm not sure I can swing a GTG Our stay is going to be pretty short; 9/10 - 9/13, so we'll be shoe horning quite a bit into the 2.75 days that we'll be there. However, if I can get away for a few... Maybe an hour or two, then perhaps, maybe? Would be nice to meet up with you guys...
Utheman Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 +1 to what Avitt, Chief, and Red said. Could even be a little warmer and drier if the Santa Ana weather system kicks up. This regularly happens Sep-Nov.
redwatch Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Anaheim is certainly fairly central for us LA and OC folks so it wouldn't be too big of a deal to swing a visit your way to make it easy Ubi. If you think you can swing an hour or two break from the family, it would be really cool to meet up with you! Could be an evening meet after the family is worn out from hanging out with Mickey all day
ubiquitous Posted March 31, 2010 Author Report Posted March 31, 2010 Hmmmm... I think it could definitely be possible We're likely going to stay at one of the hotels located directly on either Disney or California Adventure. As the date gets nearer, I'll post again to revisit and see about maybe doing a quick GTG! Cheers and all the best, R
Guest avitt Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 I recommend the Grand Californian Hotel, R. (The lobby makes the ideal spot for an impromptu GTG )
ubiquitous Posted April 1, 2010 Author Report Posted April 1, 2010 So far, we're down to either the Grand Californian or the Paradise Pier. The Disney Hotel was on the list, but some of the reviews we read on it were not great...
HauteHippie Posted April 1, 2010 Report Posted April 1, 2010 Yea, the Disney Hotel is dated now. Either of your other choices will be winners though!
Utheman Posted April 1, 2010 Report Posted April 1, 2010 ...Looking like the Grand... I think that's a Grand choice
