Garden City Weather & Climate

Northeastern South Carolina ,in the coastal plain, has terrain that is mostly flat, and the average elevation is 140 feet above sea level. The combination of low elevation, relatively low latitude and warm Gulf stream from the Atlantic Ocean, combines to create a climate with warm, humid summers and short, mild winters. Afternoon thunderstorms are common in the summer and sometimes in the autumn. Hail and damaging winds often occur along with the summer thunderstorms. Tornadoes are uncommon unless a tropical cyclone is present. Precipitation is abundant throughout the entire year, and the coastline tends to have a slightly wetter summer. Hurricanes are a threat along the coast of South Carolina with the typical season running June through November. However, plenty of warning is generally given for these types of storms.
