I thought the same thing, but from the other end. I understand the point of view of someone from Texas, though, to whom Virginia is in the northeast. As a life-long New Englander, though, I consider New York the dividing line. New Jersey and beyond is the South; Pennsylvania and beyond is the West. Deep South starts in Virginia, Far West starts in Nebraska or Colorado.
What you see depends a lot on where you are standing.

Nobody's opinion but your own matters. Just go until you don't want to go anymore. If you prefer, get a job, sit behind a desk, and think about what could have been.
Your choice.
Going Nobo in July. You would just be getting all the humidity thats all. You will be carrying summer/fall gear.
All the crowd is way gone. You would just be running into sectioners at camp. In a couple of months, you might see some SOBOs. Then just be sleeping with all the critters (bears, mice) that are not usually out in winter & early spring times.
Just do it and see how far you can get.

PA/VA/NJ = mid atlantic.
FL = new south.
CO = mtn west.
NV west = far west.
TN = ? Long skinny state?
I am on my way to Springer in a week or two. Heading north into the wonderful fall and winter temperatures. I love the cold so it wont be a problem, the wet might bother me a little in the beginning. I will get used to it though.
-20 in the driveway bites. Eyelashes freeze, so don't know if the whiteout part makes a difference to me.
