The months above are NOAA's gridded normals at Pine Hills's center.

What is each month like in Pine Hills?

NOAA's grid estimates the normals every 5 km or so from the stations around each point, terrain included. It smooths between stations, so night lows at the heart of a large city can run warmer than the grid shows: at five big-city airports we compared, the grid's highs were within about 1°F of the station and its lows 1-6°F cooler. The nearest record's high and low are beside each month.

How much snow, how late a frost, what zone and how much sun in Pine Hills?

NOAA's grid gives no snow, frost dates or records, so these come from the nearest station record, Lake Butler (7 miles SW, 150 ft). NOAA publishes no snowfall normal for it; the nearest record that has one, Orlando (13 miles SE), gets 0 inches a year. The last spring frost (32°F) comes after January 28 in half of years and the first autumn frost before January 9.

The USDA's 2023 Plant Hardiness Zone Map puts Pine Hills in zone 10a across its 2 ZIP code areas.

Over a year 79% of the sunlight that would reach the ground under clear skies gets through the clouds in the area (4.9 kWh per square metre a day, NASA POWER 2001-2020); April is the sunniest month (83%) and June the cloudiest (75%).

Lake Butler's page has its months, frost probabilities, records by month and recent years. NOAA's grid has monthly figures only, so there are no day-by-day month pages for Pine Hills; the nearest record's month pages have them.
