The weather in Ocala for December was unusually warm. Some days hit the low 80’s and I had to turn my AC on in the afternoon to cool the house down. Most days were in the mid to high 70’s and the low 60’s at night.

January is winter in Ocala although this year is starting off exceptionally war. Winter is all about cold fronts. A front will come in and day time temperatures will drop to the low 60’s or even high 50’s. At night we can get a frost or even a light freeze. We don’t get a freeze very year. Some times we go for years between freezes. Because our temperatures are so mild many if not most homes use a heat pump for heating. A heat pump is a central air conditioner that can heat in the same way it cools. Heat pumps only work in very mild climates like Ocala.

Most days in January are in the 70’s with no humidity and the sun shines most days. The hot humid summers are a small price to pay for winters like we have in Ocala. Email me or use my Ocala Dream Home Finder and I’ll show you what you can get for a home here.
