Fall has officially arrived! And it seems that the trees know it. Most of the higher elevations throughout the Northeast are now reporting low color (11% - 30% change). The highest elevations in northern New England are rapidly approaching the moderate color range (31% - 60% change). The lower elevations, valleys, and coastal areas are still reporting little to no change.

Leaf drop throughout the region is very low as is expected at this early stage of the foliage season.

If you are planning a fall foliage trip, make sure you make your reservations soon.
