The climate of Tampa (Florida - United States of America)
Tampa is located in Tampa Bay on the Gulf of Mexico. It is the largest city in the Tampa Bay Area to which a number of other cities belong including St Petersburg and Clearwater. No less than four airports can be found here as well as a train station and a large seaport. Because of this Tampa is the center of transportation for the region. The city itself has only little to offer. Tampa has a subtropical climate. the city is located on the so-called palm tree line. From this point the climate is warm enough for palm trees to grow. During the summer average temperatures in Tampa are 28 degrees Celsius (82 degrees Fahrenheit). Because of the interaction between air currents over the Gulf of Mexico and those above the Atlantic Ocean many thunderstorms occur here, especially from May till October. Most lightning-related injuries and deaths occur in the Tampa Bay Area. During the winter subzero temperatures may occur. However, this doesn’t occur on a yearly basis. Snowfall is uncommon here.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather, extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate information for each month of the year:
