During winter, cold air from the north brings high pressure, making it cooler and drier. Summer brings warm, moist air from the ocean, creating low pressure and hot, humid weather.

Spring and fall have mixed pressure systems, with mild temperatures and moderate humidity. Gastonia's humid subtropical climate means it has hot summers, cool winters, and mild springs and autumns, all influenced by air pressure changes.
