TOO COLD FOR TOO LONG

Would NOT recommend this area for anyone who is seeking warm weather. This area has similar night-time LOW temps as those of The Northeast Cities. Hence, as in those areas, The Myrtle Beach area has a 4-5 month full-blown winter, temperature-wise.
What is especially ungodly about the climate here is the INSTANT 15-20 degree drop in temperature shortly after dark. For example a 70 degree day QUICKLY becomes a 40 degree night. A 30 departure in temp is "normal," for this area.
With daytime highs in the low to mid 50s in the winter months does not leave too many degrees once the night begins, and this does not include the wind chill factor!
The summer months are completely the opposite: HOT & VERY HUMID.
There are basically 2 seasons here: Summer & Winter. October and March-April are transitional months.
The climate in this area is drastic, both seasonally & DAILY!
