First Autumn in Pompano Beach, Florida? We’ve Got You Covered—What to Expect

If this is your first fall season here in sunny Pompano Beach, welcome! Autumn in South Florida is a little different than the crisp, colorful fall you might remember from up north. Instead of leaves turning orange and sweaters coming out of the closet, Pompano Beach brings its own unique rhythm to the season. Here’s what residents and visitors can expect as summer fades into fall.

Weather That Still Feels Like Summer

September and October in Pompano Beach are warm and humid, with average daytime highs in the mid-to-upper 80s °F and nights dipping into the mid-70s. Don’t expect to pack away the short sleeves just yet—light clothing, sunscreen, and plenty of water are still essentials.

Afternoon Showers Are Common

Fall is still part of Florida’s rainy season, so you’ll often see passing showers or thunderstorms, especially in the afternoon. The good news? They don’t usually last long. Keep an umbrella handy, and plan outdoor activities for mornings or early evenings when the skies are clearer.

Keeping an Eye on the Tropics

Autumn is also the height of hurricane season. While not every storm heads our way, it’s smart to stay weather-aware. Here at The Residence at Pompano Beach, our team keeps residents informed and prepared, so you’ll always feel secure knowing someone’s watching the forecast for you.

A Different Kind of Fall

While you won’t see the traditional fall foliage, you’ll enjoy:
Ocean breezes that start to feel a little cooler by late October.
Lower humidity as the rainy season winds down.
Beautiful sunsets—fall skies here can be stunning, with bright pinks and golds reflecting over the Atlantic.
