WEATHER & CLIMATE

Picture

Located approximately 500 feet above mean sea level, and sheltered from the cold air of the Great Plains by the Appalachian Mountains, the Pinehurst area is blessed with a mild, dry climate that is pleasant year round.  Its sandy soil provides rapid drainage.  This upper layer of dry sand warms and cools rapidly.  The results are warm days, cool nights and low humidity.  The following table provides statistics compiled by the U.S. Weather Bureau over the past 30 years.

Consequently there are very few days when one cannot comfortably play golf or tennis.  Our seasons are very distinct but mild compared to many other parts of the country.
