What to expect
  • Daytime feel - Pleasant warmth with big shifts between day and night. It can feel cooler than the thermometer suggests.
  • Showers & dry spells - Dry conditions. You’ll get wet windows, then dry windows. A light shower is possible, but not a daily feature.
  • Sun & UV - Midday sun is intense. Treat midday like 'high-exposure time'. A hat, sunscreen, and shade help a lot. This is a 'don't forget the hat' month.
  • Exposure - Often breezy, and gusts can make exposed walks feel cooler and more blustery. On the water or higher ground it feels stronger.
