Weather in March

March in Florida marks the beginning of spring and comes with a noticeable increase in temperatures across the state. In the northern cities, such as Tallahassee and Jacksonville, temperatures generally vary from 50°F (10°C) to 58°F (14.4°C). In contrast, southern regions, encapsulating cities like Miami and Key West, experience warmer conditions with temperatures spanning from 68°F (20°C) to 74°F (23.3°C).

Transitioning from February, March brings a more pronounced warmth, indicative of the state moving away from the cooler winter months and progressing towards the heat of April. The month witnesses a growth in daylight hours, further emphasizing the imminent arrival of summer.

While snow remains an extreme rarity in March, especially in southern Florida, the chances of its occurrence in the northern parts decrease even further. The frequency of frost also diminishes, becoming a sporadic event primarily in the northern and interior regions. As spring unfurls, the fog that was more prevalent in January and February starts to dissipate, resulting in clearer skies and brighter mornings.

March generally stays on the drier side of Florida's precipitation spectrum. However, sporadic rain showers can be anticipated, especially towards the end of the month. The rainfall is, nonetheless, modest in volume, especially when contrasted with the impending heavy rains of the summer months.
