I moved here from NY 7 years ago. I love everything about FL except the climate. From november to april the weather is beautiful. I am central FL on the gulf by Tampa. Your average temps during this period , around 70 for high and very low humidity. We do get cold spells but they are mostly high in the 50's. The coldest it has been here since I arrived was 22 degrees one january night. From May to October is another story. Its hot. Temperature wise not so bad, in the middle of summer highs 90-95 everyday. Dew points (the true gauge of comfort, not humidity) around 75. It can be brutal if you work outside. There are no breaks. The summer up north will get you hot for 2-3 weeks but that is separated by weeks of 70's and 80's and lower dew points. You get no break from the humid weather in florida summers. They are relentless. June,July and August you also see thunderstorms almost daily. The summers out west will have much higher temps but no humidity. Which is worse? IMO, the high humidity is worse. YMMV. If you work indoors its not a problem. I work in the weather. It has taken me 7 years to get used to it. I am 52 now and could never go back to the cold. When the temp drops below 70 here I am wearing a winter jacket that I used to wear up north in the sub zero weather lol. You are doing what a LOT of people are doing right now. I have seen more license plates from blue states this year then ever before. New York, New Jersey, Michigan, Pennsylvania mostly. Good luck in beautiful red florida.
Yeah but you have the low dew points. I think I would rather take the dry heat than the wet heat but everyone is different. I bring 3 shirts to work with me in the summer. By 9am I am usually changing out of the first one because its drenched.
Most of the time they are low, but they can get higher during monsoon season which is in the middle of summer when the heat is high too, usually in the 120s.
