The Weather and Flowers Blooming in June

June is hot and muggy, so dress accordingly. High temps are usually in the 90s.

Plan your outdoor activities in the early morning or late evening hours to stay cool(er), wear sunscreen, and drink plenty of water throughout the day. Pop-up thunderstorms might happen in the afternoons.

As for what’s blooming, count on seeing plenty of colorful hydrangeas and purple agapanthus blooms.

Top Events for the Month

Summer in the South is too hot to host large annual events, so you won’t find many major celebrations this month.

Savannah does celebrate Juneteenth, though!

Most Pride events happen during October when the weather is cooler.
