Atlantic City Weather

Temperature varies in Atlantic City. Summers are extremely hot and the air from the Gulf of Mexico adds to the humidity. The ocean breeze does little to affect the temperature and it generally stays above 80 percent humidity. Hurricanes are also a possibility; the state suffers severe damage every few years from a strong storm. Even when there are hurricanes in the south, the wind will push the rain all the way up to the Jersey shore. However, during the majority of the years, the rainfall is spread out evenly throughout the year. During the winters, the sea salt air helps to decrease snowfall rates, but the temperature is quite cold. Ideal visiting months are late spring/early fall.
