Jacksonville weather facts every pet owner should know
- Jacksonville's average highs top 90F in July (91.9F) and hover there in August (90.7F), past the danger line for midday dog walks, so beach trips work best at sunrise.
- Summer is storm season: June through September each average 6.77 to 7.60 inches of rain, so plan indoor games around the near-daily thunderstorm hours.
- Even in January, highs average 65.5F, great walking weather, though lows of 42.4F mean thin-coated dogs may want a light sweater at dawn.
- Jacksonville's normals show no measurable snow, but the city fell to 7F on January 21, 1985, proof that Florida pets can still meet a hard freeze.
