Today (Sunday), it was in the mid 70s. In Charleston it was supposed to be near 80. In Greenville and Charlotte it was about 10 degrees cooler than Columbia. In summer Greenville is 2 to 3 degrees cooler than Columbia. In winter Greenville can be about 10 degrees cooler. Ice storms happen once or twice a year in Greenville, with a little snow. Ice storm in Columbia maybe once every few years.
Thanks, now I feel I want to research Columbia as well. I know I could fly directly from Ft. Lauderdale for very little using Spirit Airlines...
We are in North Carolina Cherokee, we are driving back to Florida on Tuesday, but we would love to visit South Carolina, can someone tells me about places to go with kids, meaning attractions, and things to do.
Thank you

Actually, Greenville does not experience an ice storm or two every year. There have been cycles where this has happened, but it is not an annual event. Additionally, regarding the summer temperature, while it gets slightly hotter in Columbia by degrees, the heat index is typically much higher there due to a higher relative humidity level. Taking that into consideration, Greenville actually feels much less hot overall in the summer than the temperature indicates. I personally find the air to be dreadfully stagnant in the Midlands during the summer - not that we don't endure our share of similarly hot days in the Upstate, but the Midlands summers feel much hotter to me.
Since I already lived in Arkansas and Delaware I don't mind the cold so much, it's having to drive in icy roads and too many gray days (and even that I could put up with, after all, it rains more than I like here...) what I do mind. Come think of it, because of my mold allergy a very humid summer like in Columbia could be pretty bad for me...
well i hope when we move to s.c we don't see any of this.
