Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

The weather in Florida is always random and unpredictable. Thankfully, there are covers over the walkways, but if you are parked somewhere far away, then there isn't cover for that area. Some days are rainy, some sunny, and some are freezing!

The weather really never makes a difference in the campus experience. The University has great transportation to and from campus, and when it's raining, most of the buildings protect the students well as they walk in between classes.

Hot, Hot, Hot

It's beautiful in the winter but during the beginning of the fall semester and end of the summer semester it becomes incredibly hot and humid. But even so, there are still a lot of days where the beach lures students away from classes because it is so nice outside.

Sunny Florida Weather

The weather has been beautiful here so far. The weather has never affected my classes. When it does rain though, running in the rain from class to class is a pain but we can't control that too much more.

Couldn't Get Better

If you are looking for traditionally sunny weather, don't look any farther. It is sunny with no clouds most of the year. It rains for three months in the summer, practically always after 3 p.m. In the winter it hits low 50's for a few weeks, but the sun and warmth is always there.
