Climate & Seasonal Highlights Thoroughbred Country’s climate is generally mild and humid. Spring starts in March. Summer begins in June with pleasant balmy days that become quite hot before the season’s end. Autumn brings a relief from extreme temperatures with lots of sunshine while mild winter temperatures bring out the best in colorful pansies and hardy camellias. Winter temperatures can reach 20-30 degrees, and on rare occasions, we are treated with a light dusting of snow. South Carolina’s annual hurricane season runs from June through early November. Azaleas, dogwoods, wisteria and more show their beautiful blossoms in spring. Beautiful fall foliage usually peaks between late October and early November. Roadside stands offer a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables in season.
