Smoky Mountains Weather Getting Warmer
Folks the Tennessee Smoky Mountains weather is starting to warm up and it appears trees are starting their new leaves. It’s a great time for families to visit the Great Smoky Mountains area and get in some wonderful family memories! Family memebers who are photography buffs, sunrises and sunsets this time of year in the Smokies are fantastic. The warmer weather, not hot, presents clear skies for grasping wonderful colors. Nature’s pets are starting to stur, presenting a great opportunity to catch animals in their natural habitat.
So make plans to bring your family, large group, or photography club to the wonderful and treasured Tennessee Smoky Mountains. This is also a great time to save on small to large log cabin rentals. In most cases the whole group can stay cheaper than costs associated with getting hotel rooms and eating out every meal.
Smoky Mountains National Park Closes Foothills Parkway
Great Smoky Mountains National Park plans to close the Foothills Parkway East in Cocke County, TN from I-40 to Cosby, overnight on Tuesday Sept. 22 and Wednesday Sept. 23. Closures will begin at 8:00 p.m. both nights with the road re-opened by 7:00 a.m. the folowing day. The closure is being imposed to allow an engineering consultant to drill a series of core samples through the pavement to be used to develop plans to re-pave the Road. The road will be closed with Variable Message Signs stating ROAD CLOSED AHEAD at each end of the parkway (Intersection with Interstate 40 and Intersection with 321 in Cosby).
