Im thinking of doing the I-40 intersection to Hot springs in the coming months, thirty miles or so, probably around mid november or first weekend in december.

Anyone do that section this late in the year that can tell me what to expect, with water and temperatures?
Is it freezing bloody cold? I'm from Coastal South Carolina, so Im used to pretty temperate weather,
Although I've taken my hammock down to 30 with no ill effects (my stuff is rated to 0*)
