Orlando Weather:
General Info
At the approximate geographic centre of the state, the three county
Orlando area consists of 2,856 square miles. Orlando is situated approximately
150 miles from the Florida/Georgia border to the north, 50 miles from the
Atlantic Coast to the east, 75 miles from the Gulf Coast to the west, and 370
miles from the Florida Keys at the southern tip of the state.
One of the area’s biggest attractions is its year-round mild weather.
Mid-Florida’s sub-tropical climate has long been a strong drawing card for
tourists and residents alike. At the heart of the “Sunshine State”, the area’s
average annual temperature is a comfortable 72.4 degrees. Average annual
rainfall amounts to over 50 inches per year, keeping central Florida lush and
green throughout the year. Prevailing winds are southerly at nine mph. The
average elevation of the region is 127 feet above sea level.
A Rough Guide to the Seasons
Spring (April - May)
A lovely time to visit, the days are getting into the high 80's and 90's, the
evenings are also warming up. You will be able to spend the days and evenings in
shorts and t-shits. A comfortable time of year for the heat.
Summer (June - September)
The heat and humidity is now coming to it's peak in August and with it brings
the famous afternoon showers. Please note the showers often go as quickly as
they came and only last a short period of time. So if you are out and about grab
some shelter and let it go over, then you can carry on with your plans.
Autumn (October - November)
Like spring the day time temperatures and comfortable during the day and shorts
are still fine. However the evenings are getting cooler (60's - 70's) and you
may need some light trousers and for those that feel the cold a light jacket.
The summer storms have also passed by now.
Winter (December - March)
The winter in Florida is very mild and we have spent Christmas day sunbathing by
the pool before. But you may get days where trousers are required and a jacket.
The temperatures can vary from the 50's to 70's.

JC Tip
In the summer months when there maybe a quick shower in the afternoon, take a
poncho with you so you can make the most of your day. When the shower is over it
can be tucked away in a small bag again.
ALWAYS put on the sun screen, even if it looks dull, you will be surprised how
quickly you can get burnt, and keep putting it on all day......
