the sections you have to run where you may encounter adverse currents are Georgia and Carolinas but not for long stretches.
the hudson river and the mohawk river section of the Erie barge canal are capable of more than 6 knots when in a rainy spell.
big danger in getting swept over the dam when trying to get to the locks. there is around a couple hundred miles in each section that could give you trouble.
Not to say you will encounter this but easily possible. Left north carolina in october one year and chopped ice off the deck every night and finally got to Miami
where it snowed. Conventional wisdom said I should have had 60's and 70's all the way at that time of year. Plan for the extreams not the averages.
I have had a lot of dry stacks if you want help let me know by PM.
