Summary
July’s hurricane season is off to a quiet start, with low chances of tropical development off the Southeast coast and slow-moving activity expected. Historically, July isn’t a peak month for South Carolina, with only seven storms ever making landfall since the 1850s — and none during El Niño, which is currently in play. The last direct July hit was Tropical Storm Chantal in 2025, bringing rain and surf to South Carolina while North Carolina faced deadly flooding. Before that, Hurricane Bob in 1985 was the last major July storm. So far, only Tropical Storm Arthur has formed — in mid-June and with minimal impact. The next named storm, Bertha, shows no signs of forming soon, as the average second storm doesn’t arrive until mid-July and the first hurricane typically waits until August.
