Climate Insight: Ortona Lock, FL
An annual average temperature of 73°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 84°F to a mean daily low of 62°F is what the NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals report for Ortona Lock, Florida. August is typically the warmest month of the year, while January is the coldest. That baseline comes from station USC00086657 and thirty years of averaging, so it reflects a typical month rather than any one year's swings.
Rainfall (and snow, where it falls) shapes day-to-day life here as much as temperature does. Ortona Lock sees about 57.1 inches of precipitation a year, predominantly as rainfall. The frost-free season averages -16 days, which directly shapes the planting calendar and growing potential for the area, with the last spring freeze near January 27 and the first fall freeze near January 11. On the energy side, 439 heating degree days and 3,386 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Ortona Lock scores 74/100 (Good), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. The monthly tables above are the practical planning tool: mild highs and lows land in the shoulder seasons, August-driven heat peaks in summer, and January-driven cold sets in over deep winter. These are thirty-year averages, not a forecast - any single year can run warmer, wetter, drier, or cooler than the normal.
