I have seen temps in TN down to -20, good chunks of time are spent below freezing, and they get a bit of snow on occasion.
If you camp in TN between the first of November and the middle of April you are going to need at least a zero rated bag and a decent tent. For one thing, when you leave home in the morning there is the chance that you will think you are on another planet by dark, the weather changes rapidly.
Even though it is south of the Ohio River it still rains, and it rains a lot, especially in the winter when those temps are right down there in hypothermia territory.
You Yankees, if you really are a Yankee, seem to forget that people die of hypothermia at 50 degrees if they are wet and the wind chill is right.
