The climate of Greenville (South Carolina
- United States of America)
Greenville is located in the western part of South Carolina at the
foot of the Appalachians. Greenville is the regional center of Upstate
South Carolina. Many restaurants, theaters and cinemas can be found in
the city. Several theater companies which produce plays are based in
Greenville. Many shops and museums can be found in Greenville as well.
Greenville was one of the last cities where a house was built designed
by the architect Frank Lloyd Wright. This house can still be visited.
If you are looking for some peace and quiet you can visit Falls Park
on the Reedy. A river with several beautiful waterfalls flows through
this park. Greenville has a warm maritime climate. Because of the
influence of the ocean large differences in temperatures between
summer and winter are uncommon. In December, January and February
temperatures drop a few degrees below freezing point and snowfall may
occur. Extremely cold winters are uncommon in Greenville. Summers are
warm and wet. Heavy showers may occur all year round.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
