Regional context

Hollywood's climate, from NOAA NCEI 1991-2020 station normals, pairs 69°F Januarys with 82°F Julys — a 13°F swing. About 46.5 inches of precipitation falls over roughly 265 days a year.

Summer convection drives Hollywood's precipitation: September logs 6.8 inches on 28.3 rainy days, against February's 1.9 inches on 16.4 — warm-season storms carry Hollywood's moisture. It is a warm-season-wet pattern Hollywood shares with places like Dania Beach, FL, Pembroke Park, FL and Hallandale Beach, FL.

Hollywood rarely sees a hard freeze — its coldest month sits near 69°F — so planting spans most of the calendar. Heat peaks in August around 82°F, which confines cool-season crops to the shoulders of summer. Across Hollywood, elevation and tree cover drive a 4-7°F spread in Hollywood's overnight lows.

Similar climates: Dania Beach, FL, Pembroke Park, FL, Hallandale Beach, FL, West Park, FL, Ives Estates, FL.
