Regional context
Tillmans Corner's climate, drawn from NOAA NCEI 1991-2020 normals at the nearest station, runs warm year-round with a milder seasonal range. July means peak near 82°F and January settles around 51°F — a 31°F swing reflecting the lower-latitude position at 30.6°N. Yearly precipitation totals roughly 67.1 inches over about 80 rainy days.
Rainfall stays relatively even across the calendar: July tops out at 7.7 inches across 10.5 days with measurable rain, and October settles around 4.0 inches across 4.4 rainy days — a comparatively narrow seasonal range. The balanced distribution lines Tillmans Corner up with places like Theodore, AL, Belle Fontaine, AL and Mobile, AL, all of which run on overlapping storm tracks rather than a single seasonal moisture source.
Hard freezes are uncommon here: the coldest month averages 51°F, well above the freezing threshold, so the growing window stretches across most of the year. Cool-season crops can be planted in late fall through early spring, and warm-season transplants tolerate the local winter unless an unusual frontal passage drops temperatures below the 30-year normal. The hottest stretch arrives in July at a mean of 82°F, which limits cool-season vegetables to the shoulder months on either side of the summer peak. Those are 1991-2020 normals; in a given year an unusual frontal passage can drop temperatures briefly below the seasonal mean. Within Tillmans Corner, neighborhood-scale variation — coastal proximity, elevation, tree cover, urban heat-island intensity — drives a 4-7°F spread in overnight lows that the regional average masks.
