Here are a couple of wind plots for July from last year. There can be variation year to year. The first is for the 520 Slick, a spot on the Intracoastal Waterway near Cocoa on the east coast.
The next is for Egmont Key just south of Ft. Desoto below Tampa Bay on the west coast. Winds are likely a bit better in the graphs than you may see closer to land at Ft. Desoto.
The first horizontal line is 10 mph and the second 20 mph, (not knots). Those sharp long spikey things are gusts in squalls. These are things you want to avoid of course. We do get squalls in the summer, the thermal variety related to sea breezes and also tropical systems. Cold front activity usually dies down here in the summer.
