The 2023 USDA map puts Mango’s center in zone 9b: the coldest night of a typical winter, averaged over 1991–2020, reaches about 29°. Plant labels use the zone; frost dates tell you when to plant.
Freezing nights by month

About 54 inches of rain a year
August is the wettest month and November the driest. Rain falls on about 122 days a year. Snow is rare: about 0.0" in a normal year at Valrico 2.2 Se, FL, so most winters see none.

Heating and cooling a home in Mango
10% of the work is heating, so air conditioning is the bigger bill. No month averages under 55°.
Degree days add up how far each day’s average falls below (heating) or rises above (cooling) 65° over a year. NOAA normals at Plant City, FL.
Living with Mango’s climate
What the numbers mean for a garden, a free afternoon and a bad-weather day.
Zone 9b. Frost comes about 8 winters in 10, so tender plants can often stay out through winter.
Months with highs of 62–84° and lows of 40° or more: January, February, March, April, November and December. 0.2 miles of trails are waiting.
Parks & trails →Of the yearly building losses FEMA expects in Mango from natural hazards, hurricanes are the largest share (37%); heat waves, cold waves, winter storms and ice storms together are 18%. Normals are averages; the hazards page covers the extremes.

| Town | Jan. low | July high | Precip. | Snow |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mango, FL | 50° | 91° | 54" | 0.0" |
| Hitchcock, TX | 47° | 90° | 53" | 0.1" |

| Gulf Shores, AL | 44° | 90° | 62" | 0.0" |
Temperatures and rain come from NOAA’s 5 km grid, so each town gets its own value. Snow and frost-free days come from the nearest weather station, so neighbors often share them.
Warmer than it used to be
The last 30 years in Mango averaged 1.7° warmer than the 1900s. The biggest change is in December (+2.4°).
A bigger shift than in 71% of U.S. towns.
Change by month
The two periods overlap (1991–2000 is in both), which makes the gap a little smaller than it would be between separate periods.
How Mango compares
Against 12,954 U.S. towns of 2,500 or more (one per 5 km climate cell), with Mango’s place among Florida’s.
