You should know that it is guaranteed to rain at least once while we are down there. I've gone to nationals 4 of the last 5 years and its rained each time. The 1 time it didn't rain was when I wasn't there. I am going again this year, so it should rain 
The divisions are split semi-randomly. I've heard that FIRST tries to keep regional winners seperate, but the rest is completely random, so it is unlikely that all your buddies will be in the same division. However, all the pits are still in the same tent; its not like your friends will be scattered all throughout Disney World.
The best advice I can give is to work hard and have a blast!

Haha! Last year we played in the rain - it was so much fun! We even dragged some of our engineers out there to play in the rain with us... It was fun while it lasted, but we were all FREEZING afterwards! If you're going to play in the rain, bring a change of clothes and/or a jacket
the weather last year (I thought) was pretty nice). The pits were really cold thogh. I'm planning on keepi8ng a sweatshirt handy when I'm in the pits
Shorts are good though. One girl on our team got sick from the heat because she wore pants all day and didn't drink, like, any water the entire day! Bring **plenty** of waterbottles for yourself and make sure your teammates are drinking water too!
