Learn moreA genuine four-season, humid subtropical climate
Florence sits in the same broad North Alabama climate zone as Huntsville, roughly 70 miles to the east -- hot, humid summers and comparatively mild, if occasionally cold, winters. City-specific monthly temperature averages were not independently re-sourced this pass; see this project's huntsville-al.js record for the regional climatological baseline.
Tornado season is the defining weather risk, not hurricane season
As an inland North Alabama city, Florence carries zero hurricane risk. Its real weather hazard is tornado season, spanning the broader "Dixie Alley" pattern documented across this project's Alabama coverage -- see insurance-hazard-costs for the fuller, sourced picture.
Key takeaways
