Precipitation patterns matter as much as temperature for anyone planning to live, garden, or travel here. Stuart receives roughly 62.7 inches of precipitation each year, with negligible snowfall. The frost-free season averages -5 days, which directly shapes the planting calendar and growing potential for the area, with the last spring freeze near January 23 and the first fall freeze near January 18. For energy use, 256 heating degree days and 4,044 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.
On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Stuart scores 59/100 (Moderate), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. For planning purposes, look to the monthly tables above: shoulder seasons bring the mildest highs and lows, summer brings July-driven heat, and deep winter brings January-driven cold. Treat every figure here as a thirty-year average rather than a forecast - individual years routinely run warmer, cooler, wetter, or drier than the normal.
