What 1991–2024 of Data Says

June–October is the statistical sweet spot at Pebble Beach: feels-like highs near 62°F, 99% of days play dry, and winds average just 12 mph. The toughest stretch is December–March (53°F feels-like, 75% dry days, 14 mph wind). Coastal cloud and fog peak in January, overcast about 21% of daylight hours.

The local angle that decides a round: the Monterey marine layer — summer mornings are often fogged in and cool, while September and October deliver the clearest, warmest, most reliable golf weather of the year.

How we score golf weather

The golf playability score (0–100) weights feels-like temperature (40%), dry-day frequency (25%), wind (20%), cloud/fog (10%) and humidity (5%), tuned so 62–80°F, light winds and clear skies score highest. Historical figures use ERA5 reanalysis (1991–2024); the forecast uses Open-Meteo. Values are regional (nearest grid cell), so treat them as the seasonal pattern rather than hole-by-hole precision.
