    This could depend on the type of paint you are wanting to use although the bigger question is the humidity and moisture levels. If you have dew that settles at night now would not be a good time. Trapping moisture under paint and the paint will be ruined when the moisture tries to escape during the hot dry days. Its already warm enough to paint concrete in Florida. The only real concern would be the humidity levels and any excessive ground moisture. Lay a piece of clear plastic on the concrete during the day. Weight down the corners or tape around the edges. Let it sit for a few hours in the sun then inspect it. If you have any condensation under it don't paint. If it's dry underneath you're ready to go.
