Coming to our area soon 🍁

-Peak Fall Foliage Forecast-

For some areas, the trees are expected to peak their color earlier than normal given the expected drier September with several cool mornings early in the month (this weekend especially) with a cooldown expected later this month. Expect the colors to peak in October for much of the region and with a wetter summer, the colors should be bright this year, as long as it doesn't get too windy.

There is much more than most people think into forecasting when the peak colors take place and how vibrant they are. This year, so far, is setting up to be a perfect year as long as next month isn't too windy.
