When to Travel in the USA

The United States is for the most part a temperate country. In the summer months the northern states are great, in the winter places like Florida and Arizona are a better bet. California is pleasant all year long which accounts for the overcrowding there.

The busiest hurricane months in Florida are August to October. If Category Four or Five storms are predicted leave.
