Winter/Spring Season

Typically in the winter season you can expect an average high of 75°F, and an average low in the mid 50's. See The Weather Channel for more details.  You will want to bring a few warm clothing items such as a button up sweater for the cool evenings, especially in January.  Lightweight cotton clothing is always a safe choice for casual days.

Summer/Fall Season

During the summer the average high is 91°F and the average low is in the low 70's.  The summer is Florida's rainy season, and on average you can expect high humidity and rainfall of close to an average of 8 inches per year.  It would be a good idea to pack an umbrella and other light weight rain gear to keep dry during the daily afternoon showers.
