Memphis Weather in October

Memphis on the Mississippi River bluffs has one of Tennessee's hottest climates, with Gulf moisture arriving from the south and the massive river adding humidity. Summer heat index values regularly exceed 105°F and the flat terrain around the city provides no cooling relief. The city's blues and BBQ cultures both emerged partly from the need for shade and cold beverages.

Foliage season in temperate cities. Often the best month to visit Europe.
