Outer Banks Weather
The Outer Banks of North Carolina® is a chain of barrier islands midway on
the Atlantic Seaboard, 90 miles south of Norfolk,
Virginia and 321 miles north of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Surrounded by 900 square miles of water, we have the third largest
estuary system in the world, wildlife refuges, maritime forests, the Cape Hatteras National Seashore and the highest sand dunes on the East Coast at
Jockey's Ridge State Park.
The
Outer Banks offers ideal vacation temperatures in the summer season. Outer
Banks weather is a combination of bright sunny days tempered by gentle ocean
breezes. The area enjoys around 200 sunny days each year, with a year-round
average hovering around 70°. Wind is an everyday occurrence on the Outer
Banks, and can range from gentle southwest breezes to strong northeast storm
winds. Otherwise the weather changes rapidly and can be very unpredictable.

Temperatures in the Spring

S-Curve at
Mirlo Beach Web Cam
A web cam is set-up at the S-Curve at
Mirlo Beach. It is maintained by
Dare County, NC, to
assist the NCDOT and Dare County Emergency Management during storms by using
streaming video. It also provides visual information to the public via the
internet. The view on the website
is not streaming video but is a still shot continually updated every 15
seconds so that more users may access this feature at the same time.
Mirlo Beach is the northern entrance to Rodanthe. The purpose of the
Mirlo Beach camera is to film the road at what is commonly called S-curves,
a “hot spot” on NC Highway 12 where overwash is frequent during storms.
Dare
County Emergency Management purchased the Mirlo Beach camera and controls
the direction of the view remotely from Manteo.
