North Carolina’s Climate
Shows Wide Range
i mi - ii.
Mt. Mitchell Coldest
Climate varies sharply,
with altitude, as well as
with latitude. For this rea
son, North Carolina has a
wide climatic range, since
it rises from a 320-mile
Atlantic Beach line project
ing almost to the warm
Gulf Stream to the highest
mountains i n Eastern
America (49 peaks above
6,000 feet). The State is
502 miles long between ex
tremes of coast and moun
tains, and 188 miles in
breadth.
Since a rise of 1,000 feet
may lower temperatures as
much as '5 degrees, the
warmest part of the State
is naturally the Southeas
tern low country around j
Southport and Wilmington,
