The year, day by day
The year in Everglades City runs from a mild 53°F around January 15 to 93°F at the peak near July 29, and the normal low never reaches freezing on any date in the record.
When the heat sits
Normal highs reach 90°F from May 7 through September 28, covering 145 dates. The broader mild season, normal highs of 70°F or more, runs January 1 to December 31.
This counts calendar dates whose 1991–2020 normal high reaches 90°F. It is a smaller number than the 90°F+ day counts in the monthly table above, which measure how often the threshold was actually crossed in a typical year. A date can average 88°F and still exceed 90°F in half of all years.
No freezing date
Not one calendar date in the 1991–2020 record carries a normal low at or below 32°F. The coldest normal low of the year is 53°F around January 15.
Where the wet dates fall
The likeliest wet date is August 25, when 57% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is January 1 at 14%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 116 wet dates a year.
The widest day
March 14 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 26°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Where Everglades City Stands Nationally
Summers here run among the most heat-heavy normals calendars in the country: on about 145 days a year the normal daily high itself reaches 90°F — a count fewer than one station in ten exceeds.
The normal water year runs well above the national norm at roughly 55 inches.
Everglades City earns 2 nationally notable standings (outer quintiles) against 6,860 NOAA 1991–2020 normals stations; only those extremes render.

Everglades City runs a summer-peaked wet season
48% of Everglades City's yearly precipitation falls in June, July and August alone, against the 25% an evenly spread year would give those three months. The wettest month is June at 11.7", on an unusually narrow 18.8°F seasonal spread. Warm-season convection and, across the Southwest, the North American monsoon produce this shape: rain arrives in short heavy bursts during the hottest part of the year rather than as long cool-season soaking.
- Wettest three months: June, September, August, taking 51% of the annual total between them.
- Driest month: November at 1.4".
- Winter share: 10% falls in December, January and February.
Shares are computed from this station's own 1991-2020 monthly precipitation normals. A summer-peaked label means the June-August share reaches 35%; it describes timing across an average year, not any single season, and says nothing about how heavy an individual storm can be.
When it rains in Everglades City, it arrives in quantity
55.3" of precipitation falls across only about 115 wet days here, averaging 0.48 inches each. Fewer days carry more water: the year's total is delivered in comparatively heavy events rather than persistent damp.
- Days with measurable precipitation
- about 115 a year, 32% of all days
- Average depth per wet day
- 0.48 inches
- Most wet days
- August, about 17
- Fewest wet days

A wet day is one recording at least 0.01 inches. These are 1991-2020 normals: they describe an average year, and a per-day average is not a forecast of any individual storm.

Data-derived climate profile
How Everglades City's climate pattern fits together
cooling led · wet · low swing
Warm-season load persists through a relatively even calendar in Everglades City. Cooling totals 4,136 degree days, more than double the 230 heating measure, and the 18.8°F seasonal range is compact rather than sharply divided.
Warm-season demand is paired with a wet annual normal: 55.3 inches of precipitation at Everglades City. Snowfall is not added to the interpretation because its annual value is missing. The month-by-month bars distinguish a concentrated wet season from moisture spread across the calendar.
Everglades City's 18.8°F seasonal spread is compact even though precipitation is abundant. August and January mark the typical warm and cold ends of the calendar. The annual average is 76°F. Temperature is relatively steady; the monthly rows show how rain and snow observations vary across the calendar.
A frost-free growing-season length is not available for Everglades City. That missing field is kept separate from the observed temperature and precipitation record rather than filled from a regional estimate.
These labels group NOAA 1991-2020 normals from Everglades City's primary station, so the summer figures are a thirty-year average rather than a ceiling: individual years have run hotter and will again. For Everglades City that means a descriptive range only — not an official NOAA classification and not a prediction for next summer.

Place identity: U.S. Census Bureau 2024 Gazetteer places. The conservative exact name-and-state crosswalk finds no Census place match, so PlainClimate treats this as a station-mapped location and does not claim it is a municipality. No exact Gazetteer row for Everglades City; facility counts that depend on place identity are therefore an upper bound, not a municipal census.
On this page every temperature, precipitation, and derived score for Everglades City comes from its primary NOAA station record.
