City insight: Nashville
Nashville is the capital of Tennessee, on the Cumberland River in Middle Tennessee, known as Music City, with notably hilly terrain around the city. The climate is humid subtropical: summers are hot and humid, winters are generally cool with light snow, mostly in January and February, and spring and autumn can bring severe thunderstorms. Autumn is the driest season, which makes it the best time to race, with spring also good. Summer heat and humidity call for caution, and storm risk is worth checking in spring.
