Normally, Fall in North Florida will arrive around the second or third week in October. You will see some mornings in the low 50s or even the upper 40s by November with sunny, crisp, low humidity days. Of course, summer will come back for a day or two after that but Fall will dominate until the first freeze around mid December.
However, the operative word here is "Normally"
Some years it stays in the mid 80 till Thanksgiving. Other years it goes from fall to winter in late October.
These last few humid rainy weeks are part of a tropical NE flow off the ocean. We are just lucky this year that the upper atmosphere winds sheared all these storms from forming into tropical storms. Otherwise this year would have been another hurricane year for Florida.
Sometimes we get these Northeasters in the winter and it is cold, wet and raw. That is the only winter weather I dont like.
The best weather in the winter is from the west. I love it when a strong cold front comes out of the NW and we get a couple of mornings of frost with daytime highs only in the 50s!
I fire up the wood stove and dress in layers and have tons of energy compared to the Dog Days of summer.
I am counting the days till this glorious weather arrives. Bring it on!
