myrtle beach in february weather
We never know what to expect in the winter in Myrtle Beach because it could just as easily be 70 degrees as 30 degrees. We’ve had sunny beach days and snowy days. The average temperatures are 59 for the high and 38 for the low. It’s crisp and cool enough for a light jacket but not freezing temps that would require snow gear. Although, Southerners have been known to wear ski jackets when it’s mildly chilly!
