Climate Insight: Crescent City, FL

The NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals describe Crescent City, Florida as a location with an annual average temperature of 71°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 80°F to a mean daily low of 62°F. August is typically the warmest month of the year, while January is the coldest. These thirty-year averages, computed from station USC00081978, smooth out year-to-year variability and give a baseline expectation for typical conditions in any given month.

Precipitation patterns matter as much as temperature for anyone planning to live, garden, or travel here. Crescent City receives roughly 49.9 inches of precipitation each year, with seasonal snowfall possible. Growing-season length varies with elevation and microclimate, with the last spring freeze near February 1 and the first fall freeze near January 8. For energy use, 814 heating degree days and 3,118 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.

On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Crescent City scores 92/100 (Excellent), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. Use the monthly tables above to plan around specific windows — shoulder seasons for mild highs and lows, peak summer for August-driven heat, or deep winter for January-driven cold. All figures here are thirty-year averages: any single year may run warmer, wetter, drier, or cooler than the normal, so treat them as planning guidance rather than forecasts.
