How is the snow/winter in central Tennessee?

I've been looking around in the eastern side, near Cleveland.

But I am looking blind and long distance. Hope to make a trip
to the area in the semi near future to get a better feel before making a move.

Got to get around some like minded folks for retirement.

Snow in the line above interstate 40 is common every year especially near the Kentucky line

Snow below interstate 40 happens most years but with about one third the frequency and intensity

At altitude of 2000 foot or better on the Cumberland plateau or the Appalachian you get a lot more snow

The higher the more essentially

Even in Nashville the hilltops may get inches and down low only a dusting

We had a home at 4800 elevation at Hound Ears North Carolina and the snow there was like interior Maine

Cold as hell and a lot of snow

Grandfather mountain some seasons had 9-10 feet

But most of Tennessee gets not much snow...average for Nashville is 8 inches but it’s contrasted tween several snows a year versus years with just a couple dustings

One thing middle tennessee gets is rain

Rain rain rain rain rain

It’s been overcast of rain 83 of last 110 days..

We’ve had 11 days straight of rain in November

Far rainier than Birmingham or Atlanta

Ask any roofer or car wash owner

I’m sick of it
