Geographical Factors |
 What a fantastic creation!- East Tennessee. The Great Valley of East Tennessee (elevations ranging from 1500' in the north down to 700' in the south) contains a series of northeast-southwest ridges. The eastern border of the state is dominated by the Great Smoky Mountains, with numerous peaks rising 4000' to 6000' above sea level. Of course, these general patterns are affected by topography: the higher mountain areas have climates with milder summers as well as colder, more blustery winters. That all makes the living superb and interesting, with lots of things to see and do.

Of course, these general patterns are affected by topography: the higher mountain areas have climates with milder summers as well as colder, more blustery winters. The length of the growing season is also linked to topography: most of East Tennessee has a growing season between 180 and 220 days, but this drops 130 days in the highest mountains. The average rainfall in the valley is 48 inches. The highest peaks in the Great Smoky Mountains can experience as much as 80 inches of rainfall. The valley areas average about 12 inches of snow per year. The amount at higher elevations will be higher- up to 84 inches at Mr. LeConte, for example.
