What to pack

What August feels like

August is the wettest stretch of the year and the beginning of the anxious half of hurricane season. The storms here come in off the ocean rather than the interior, and people talk about the water temperature the way other places talk about a hot tub.

Rain arrives about 11 days of the month, so keep one flexible day in your plans. about 16 afternoons top 90°.

Can you swim?

The ocean runs about 84° — bath-warm.
