Just looked at the extended forecast and we're supposed to stay in the 80's for awhile with scattered thunderstorms, but today is another beautiful day so far, just like yesterday...

No kidding. We were outside making some music and the wind was blowing so hard that it was FREEZING. Had to move to the porch! This was up against the mountains though.

Strictly speaking, the plateau isn't northeast TN.  But the nice weather, afaik, has extended from the Cumberlands to up here in the Tri-Cities. Not sure about Chatty and the like.

The plateau is at about the same elevation as NE TN so the weather is very similar. It's usually several degrees cooler in Crossville and Cookeville (especially Crossville) than in Knoxville. And less humid, too.
My brother is at our cabin in the NC mountains and said last night it got down to 45 there. Is that awesome or what?

Now that is fireplace temperatures....
I'm north of Crossville and we're 5 - 10 degrees cooler in the summertime and around 5 degrees warmer in the winter.....

I mean geographically, but you're right, elevation and weather wise. Where's your NC cabin? That's my ancestral homeland (not to mention I grew up about 25 minutes from Marshall) so I love it over there.
