Cape Coral Climate:
One of the most attractive feature of Cape Coral and this area of South west Florida is the fantastically good year round weather.
The average annual temperature is 74.4F; High average 84.1F and Low average 64.7F
With an average of 335 days of brilliant sunshine each year, and the other 30 days of moderate sunshine, it is an ideal year round sub tropical holiday destination. The summers are very warm, and humid and rainy. The area only receives approximately 53” of rainfall each year, with the majority being between May and September. However, during these summer months the afternoon rain often rolls in only lasting a couple of hours before the sun reappears, heat and humidity return and all is well again. Meanwhile, the winter in Cape Coral is absolutely gorgeous.
