Try April!

Too bad you can't travel May through November. October should be nice.

Hello:

I think March is probably the best month historically.

I've lived in South Florida 36 years. The "season" is definitely my favorite time
to be here...it's doesn't usually rain and it's not as
humid. But, the weather changes from year to year...ya never know.

This past year...wonderful
weather came our way early, it started in November. It's been beautiful! I wouldn't mind a cool front...in South Florida that means 80 instead of 85.

There are some misconceptions.

Hurricanes are few and far between. Also, you normally see them coming days ahead.

While June thru September is the rainy season and you could go many consecutive days with rain, it doesn't rain all day.

During those months the plan should be to get up early and do your beach stuff between 9AM and noon.

Then do you indoor stuff during the hottest, rainy part of the day and then back out for a balmy dinner.

Yes, there is high humidity. The upside is your skin will feel like a baby's bum.

The driest warm months could be any time between October and May. The coldest could be December thru February.

Best chances are October, November, April & May.

Spring is drier than fall, so April gets you the best shot at warm, but dry.

Hello:

I'm welcoming our first cold
front thru South Florida. I
think it could drop to the upper 40's tonite (1/2/08) ..sweater
weather! Actually, we'll all bring out our down jackets!

I have been to WPB in Dec, Jan, Feb, March, May & October. I prefer May & Oct for warm weather but that is not an option for you.
Last year(2007) I was in WPB for the last 2 weeks in March & the weather was dreadful....chilly, very windy & rainy. But, the year b/f in mid-March it was beautiful so you never know. This year I will be there in lateFeb/early March so who knows what we will get? Given that you cannot travel May-Nov, I wld pick April if I were you.
Are you going to Palm Beach, Palm Beach Shores, North Palm Beach or where?
