The state&#8217;s favorable  climate, the many miles of beautiful beaches, and the towering mountains  attract throngs of seasonal visitors and vacationers each year. The significant  factor in weather variation is altitude. Throughout the year the average  temperature varies more than 20 degrees Fahrenheit from the lower coast to the  highest elevations. The greater part of the state is protected by mountain  ranges from severe cold in the winter months. To the east, temperatures are  modified by the Atlantic Ocean. This influence raises the average winter  temperature and decreases the average day-to-night range. The variation in  daily temperatures reaches a peak in May and October. Summer temperatures can  reach 100 degrees on occasion but usually remain in the 90-degree range.<br \/>\n  \u00a0<br \/>\n  <strong>Fayetteville Regional Climate<\/strong><br \/>\n  \u00a0<\/p>\n<table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"426\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"133\"><strong>Climate Category<\/strong><\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"26\"><strong>Jan<\/strong><\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"45\"><strong>April<\/strong><\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"41\"><strong>July<\/strong><\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"40\"><strong>Sep<\/strong><\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"40\"><strong>Dec<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"133\">Average Temp (F)<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"26\">41.9<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"45\">60.5<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"41\">80.5<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"40\">61.9<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"40\">44.9<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"133\">High Temp (F)<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"26\">52.3<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"45\">73.3<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"41\">90.4<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"40\">73.9<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"40\">55.6<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"133\">Low Temp (F)<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"26\">3.15<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"45\">47.6<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"41\">70.7<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"40\">49.7<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"40\">34.2<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"133\">Precipitation    (in)<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"26\">4.1<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"45\">3.2<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"41\">5.4<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"40\">3.1<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"40\">3.2<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>  \u00a0<br \/>\n  \u00a0<br \/>\n  <strong>National Weather Service<\/strong><br \/>\n  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nws.noaa.gov\/\">www.nws.noaa.gov<\/a><br \/>\n  \u00a0<br \/>\n  <strong>National Weather Service Forecast Office<\/strong><br \/>\n  Raleigh-Durham<br \/>\n  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.erh.noaa.gov\/er\/rah\">www.erh.noaa.gov\/er\/rah<\/a><br \/>\n  \u00a0<br \/>\n  <strong>National Weather Service Forecast Office<\/strong><br \/>\n  Wilmington<br \/>\n  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.erh.noaa.gov\/er\/ilm\">www.erh.noaa.gov\/er\/ilm<\/a><br \/>\n  \u00a0<br \/>\n  <strong>State Climate Office of North Carolina<\/strong><br \/>\n  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nc-climate.ncsu.edu\/\">www.nc-climate.ncsu.edu<\/a><br \/>\n  \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DEMOGRAPHICS \/ CLIMATE \u00a0 Located in the temperate zone, North Carolina boasts a generally mild climate with abundant and well-distributed rainfall.
