096 NOUS42 KMLB 020249 PNSMLB Public Information Statement National Weather Service Melbourne FL 1049 PM EDT Tue Jul 1 2025 ...June 2025 Weather Summary Across East Central Florida... Average temperatures for June 2025 ended up near to just above normal by 1 to 1.5 degrees across the area. Notably, it was the 8th warmest June on record at Sanford and 9th warmest on record at Melbourne. The subtropical ridge axis often remained across to just north of the area during the month, which focused greater shower and storm coverage either well inland or west of east central Florida. This led to overall drier than normal conditions for June, with many primary climate locations having rainfall totals that were around 2 to 4 inches below normal for the month. ...Temperatures... Temperatures were near to slightly below normal to start the month due to a weak cold front that had moved through at the end of May and stalled near Lake Okeechobee, as well as an increase in showers and storms through the 3rd and 4th as this boundary eventually shifted northward. Highs across much of the region remained in the 80s through the 4th. Minimum temperatures fell as low as the 60s north of Orlando during the first couple days of June, which were the coolest temperatures observed for the month. Afterwards and through much of the rest of the June, temperatures remained near to slightly above normal. Highs typically ranged from the upper 80s to low 90s along the coast and low to mid 90s inland, with lows often in the low to mid 70s. An increase in rainfall and cloudiness toward the end of June did drop temperatures slightly, with values near to just a few degrees below normal. The only daily temperature records set or tied during June 2025 were a handful of warm minimum temperature records during mid-month. One of these occurred at Daytona Beach and four occurred at Sanford when lows didn`t fall below the mid to upper 70s. Average temperatures for June 2025 were near to just above normal. At Fort Pierce, the average temperature of 79.9 degrees was exactly normal for the month, and for Daytona Beach, Sanford, Orlando, and Melbourne average temperature departures were around 1 to 1.5 degrees above normal. It was the 8th warmest June on record for Sanford and at Melbourne it was the 9th warmest June on record.

A weak frontal boundary stalled near the Lake Okeechobee region to start off June, with showers and storms generally limited to Okeechobee County and the Treasure Coast for the first couple days of the month. This boundary then lifted northward with an increase in rainfall across all of east central Florida on the 3rd and 4th. Drier than normal conditions then set in for several days as the front lifted north of the area. During mid-month, the subtropical ridge axis remained across central Florida, with scattered showers and storms developing most days. However, greatest coverage of this activity focused inland and west of east central Florida. Another drier period set in for a few days from the 23rd through the 25th before rainfall picked up into late June. Scattered to numerous showers and storms occurred most days across east central Florida from the 26th through the 30th. Overall during the last 5 days of the month, widespread precipitation amounts of 1-3 inches fell across east central Florida, with localized totals of 4-7 inches. Despite this increase in rainfall in late June, overall rainfall amounts still ended up below normal by around 2-4 inches for many locations. There were some spots northwest of I-4, across extreme northern Brevard and also inland of the Treasure Coast where rainfall was near to above normal for the month. Totals across these areas reached up to 8-12 inches, while across much of the rest of east central Florida, monthly amounts were closer to 3-6 inches.
