The year, day by day
The calendar barely moves in Palm Beach Gardens: no date carries a normal high of 90°F or a normal low at freezing. The year runs between 55°F near January 20 and 90°F near August 13.
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 55°F around January 20.
Where the wet dates fall
The likeliest wet date is August 27, when 50% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is February 20 at 17%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 113 wet dates a year.
The widest day
January 30 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 19°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Where Palm Beach Gardens Stands Nationally
This is one of the wettest normals climates ranked: about 66 inches of precipitation in a normal year, a total fewer than one station in ten surpasses.
Among the steadiest day-night climates ranked: even the widest normal daily swing holds to roughly 19°F.
Palm Beach Gardens earns 2 nationally notable standings (outer quintiles) against 6,860 NOAA 1991–2020 normals stations; only those extremes render.

Palm Beach Gardens runs a summer-peaked wet season
37% of Palm Beach Gardens'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 9.2", on an unusually narrow 17.9°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 39% of the annual total between them.
- Driest month: February at 2.6".
- Winter share: 15% 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 Palm Beach Gardens, it arrives in quantity
66.0" of precipitation falls across only about 113 wet days here, averaging 0.58 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 113 a year, 31% of all days
- Average depth per wet day
- 0.58 inches
- Most wet days
- August, about 16
- Fewest wet days
- February, about 5
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 Palm Beach Gardens's climate pattern fits together
cooling led · wet · low swing
Warm-season load persists through a relatively even calendar in Palm Beach Gardens. Cooling totals 3,721 degree days, more than double the 285 heating measure, and the 17.9°F seasonal range is compact rather than sharply divided.
Warm-season demand is paired with a wet annual normal: 66.0 inches of precipitation at Palm Beach Gardens. 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.
Palm Beach Gardens's 17.9°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 74°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 Palm Beach Gardens. 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 Palm Beach Gardens'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 Palm Beach Gardens that means a descriptive range only — not an official NOAA classification and not a prediction for next summer.
