  Spring storm season

  3月15日 – 5月31日 · 通常

  Late winter and spring bring the line squalls that flood the streets and take the power out for days, and the Mississippi runs its highest in the same weeks. It is a few afternoons, not a season indoors. 来源 ↗

  Beale Street Music Festival

  5月1–3日人多要早订

  Three days in Tom Lee Park on the river, the first weekend of May, and the opening act of Memphis in May. The park is grass and the river is right there, so a wet year turns it into a mud festival. 来源 ↗
