Weather here

All summer it was uncomfortably hot outside so I didn’t venture out much. Spring and fall lasted about two days. Now it’s winter and too dern cold to spend time outside. When it warms up so temps are in the mid-70’s I’m going to go out and recline on my lovely patio. No more hiding out inside.

I found a web site about the weather in Sun City Center. It says: “The cool season lasts for 2.6 months, from December 8 to February 25, with an average daily high temperature below 75°F. The coldest day of the year is January 18, with an average low of 52°F and high of 71°F.”

About the “hot season” it says: “The hot season lasts for 5.0 months, from May 7 to October 5, with an average daily high temperature above 86°F. The hottest day of the year is July 17, with an average high of 90°F and low of 76°F.”

Since those two seasons total 7.6 months, we can expect glorious weather for 4.4 months.

The heat is one thing, but another factor is humidity. According to this informative page, “The muggier period of the year lasts for 7.3 months, from April 9 to November 17, during which time the comfort level is muggy, oppressive, or miserable at least 35% of the time. The muggiest day of the year is July 30, with muggy conditions 100% of the time.”

Quoting the site, “The best times of year to visit Sun City Center for general outdoor tourist activities are from late February to early May and from mid October to early December, with a peak score in the second week of April.”

So using the above information, it would appear that I’ll need to wait until February before I can expect nice temperatures.

It appears we’re being short-changed because it should be among the best time to visit here!
