Fort Lauderdale Weather in November

The Humidity Breaks and Dry Season begins.

High humidity is gone at this time of year. Fort Lauderdale weather in November is the start of the dry season with warm days and cool nights.

Although still Hurricane Season until the end of the month, the cooler ocean waters make any sort of tropical storm pretty rare. The winds tend to pick up at this time of year so the coast can get pretty breezy some days while the temperature remains warm. The winds also tend to bring in some rip currents so be aware of that when going into the ocean.

Fort Lauderdale Weather in June

Here Comes Summer!

Although on average the wettest month of the year, Fort Lauderdale weather in June is still beautiful.

From our experience, the rain usually happens at night or as one of those short lived afternoon thunderstorms that are here one minute and gone the next. 

Even though the storms are gone within the hour, they can dump a ton of rain and can make driving in them challenging. But don't worry, the sun will be shining again in minutes and with average daily temperatures in the high 80s the streets will be dry in seconds.

June is the start of hurricane season. The probability of a storm affecting South Florida at this time of year is relatively low given the still cool ocean waters. If anything does form it's usually only a tropical storm or depression and even those are fairly rare at this time of year.

Also, you will notice that the air is more humid, while some of you might not be used to it, trust us, it's no big deal. A little hair spray and deodorant and you're good to go!

Average High in June:	89°F
Record High in June:	108°F (1997)
Average Low in June:	76°F
Record Low in June:	57°F (1933)
Average Rain in June:	7.74"

TIP: Early June is also a great time of year for getting good hotel deals and cheap air tickets. The summer tourist season hasn't started yet since most kids are still in school at this time of year.

With lows in the mid 70s and highs in the upper 80s, June in Fort Lauderdale is an ideal spot for some fun in the sun.

Unfortunately with climate change things are getting hotter so average temperatures will probably need to change in the next few years. In 2022 the averages in Fort Lauderdale were a couple of degrees higher than normal. It'll be interesting to see what happens in 2023.

By the way, don't let the rain scare you away from coming down here. The weather in June is beautiful and the rain is often a refreshing distraction during your day and a great time to take a break from the beach and go shopping or take in some other indoor activities.

Fort Lauderdale Weather in September

Still sticky, still beautiful as we head into Fall.

We've never actually been down here in September but our neighbors and friends tell us that Fort Lauderdale weather in September is very similar to August but with slightly less heat and humidity.

From what we're told, you can expect it to still be pretty hot, sticky, and humid with ocean waters warmer than ever. I guess that's why Hurricane season is at its peak for South Florida at this time of year. With Hurricane Harvey hitting Texas a week ago it's nerve wracking to even think about hurricanes.

Like August, September can bring some very severe thunderstorms so be on the lookout and take shelter if you see lightning in your area. Then just sit back and enjoy the show.

With the onset of Labor Day, Fort Lauderdale gets pretty quiet as tourist season comes to a screeching halt and the snowbirds are enjoying Fall back home and kids are heading back to school. So September (like May--we love May and often spend the whole month here, May 2022 was especially great!) is a great month to come down here if you're looking for a good deal. Many hotels offer their lowest rates in the month of September.

August 2022 was a couple of degrees hotter than average on most days but the expectation for September is more of the same . That sounds pretty good to us as long as humidity stays at normal levels for September in South Florida.  

Average High in September:	88°F
Record High in September:	98°F (1955)
Average Low in September:	76°F
Record Low in September:	59°F (1938)
Average Rain in September:	8.12"

TIP: As we mentioned before, ample notice (up to a week and more) is given when a hurricane is heading towards South Florida so if you're a vacationing tourist and a hurricane is heading your way most airlines will let you change your ticket without penalty to get you back home and out of harms way. 

With average temperatures running between the upper 70s and upper 80s Fort Lauderdale weather in September is ideal for a quick Labor Day Weekend getaway. The ocean temperature is supposed to be perfectly warm yet refreshing and the summer swelter has eased enough to hit the links.

We may give it a try next year.

Fort Lauderdale Weather in August

South Florida's Hottest Month of the Year

Very similar to July, Fort Lauderdale weather in August is an interesting mix of intense heat, fleeting afternoon thunderstorms, beautifully warm seas and crystal clear blue skies.

Hotels are chock full of tourists and the bars and cafes along the beach are filled to the brim with happy vacationing patrons.

August is hot and humid with average daily temperatures in the 90s. Even at dinner time the thermometer is often well above 80 degrees so if you're coming for a visit in August pack light both in the number of items you bring (because you'll be in your bathing suit most of the time) and the type of clothing you pack.

Fort Lauderdale Weather in July

South Florida—Felling Hot! Hot! Hot!

What can we say? Fort Lauderdale weather in July can only be described as hot! Humidity levels are rising and everyone is cranking up the air conditioning.

With average high temperatures in the 90s, July is likely the hottest month of the year down here in South Florida with August coming in a very close second.

2021: We just got back from spending the month of July in Fort Lauderdale and it was a textbook month. Hot, humid and sunny every day. Although Covid restrictions limited us in certain ways, the beach was the perfect place to enjoy the outdoors.
