Local knowledge: Busch Gardens is also a zoo, and the animal areas are far more rewarding in the first two hours before the Florida heat.
Each day starts from how that weekday normally runs at Busch Gardens Tampa, learned from our own recorded wait snapshots as they accumulate, and is raised for public holidays and school-holiday periods. It is a forecast of relative busyness, not a promise: a 3 means a day that usually runs quiet for this park, not a guarantee of short lines. The further out a date sits, the more it leans on the weekday pattern alone.
