Average Smoky Mountain Climate

Tennessee has a temperate climate with short, mild winters. The average winter snowfall is 12 inches.

Cool fall temperatures bring crisp air and brilliant fall colors. Mid to late October is a good time to visit the Smoky Mountains to experience the fall foliage.

Spring comes in early March bringing flowering trees and shrubs, and warmer weather. Our average Spring brings temperatures between 45 & 70 degrees.

Summer arrives in the Smokies by mid May, bringing warm weather and higher humidity. The Great Smoky Mountains of eastern Tennessee are a great place to escape hot summers as the air is cooler at higher elevations. Learn to make your own predictions!
