Climate Patterns Sample Clauses

Climate Patterns. North Carolina's climate results from global-scale weather patterns that are modified by the diverse landscape of the state. In the eastern portion of the state the Atlantic Ocean and its "river of warm water", commonly called the Gulf Stream, play a dominate role in differentiating North Carolina's precipitation and climate. Winter storms in the vicinity of the east coast generally move northeastward paralleling the coast and the Gulf Stream.
