Fripp Hurricane Questions
Q: Why do so many hurricanes veer to the north, at the last minute, and miss the coast of South Carolina?
A: They aren't really veering at the last minute. Almost all hurricanes that move as far north as the Carolinas are eventually caught by west-to-east winds at all levels of the atmosphere and pushed back out over the Atlantic.
