Weather in April

April in Florida signifies a deeper dive into spring, accompanied by a palpable rise in temperatures. The northern sectors of the state, encompassing cities such as Tallahassee and Jacksonville, typically experience temperatures ranging from 55°F (12.8°C) to 65°F (18.3°C). On the other hand, the southern regions, including areas like Miami and Key West, bask in a warmer climate, with temperatures hovering between 72°F (22.2°C) and 78°F (25.6°C).

In comparison to March, April showcases a significant boost in warmth. With increased daylight hours and the sun climbing higher in the sky, it’s a clear precursor to the hot summer months awaiting Florida. As a testament to the changing season, the occasional chilly nights of March give way to milder nights in April.

By this time, snow is a non-factor, and the northern areas of Florida rarely, if ever, experience frost. The occurrence of fog, dominant during the winter months, becomes even less frequent, making way for clearer mornings and sunlit days.

While April continues to remain relatively dry, the state starts seeing sporadic and brief rain showers. These showers, albeit infrequent, are indicative of the looming wet season that intensifies in the ensuing months. Despite the occasional rain, April is still considerably parched compared to the imminent deluges of Florida's summer.
