The past week was very colorful here, actually longer, but more than half the trees/shrubs were bare by last night. Snow is coming in the next 36 hrs followed by a hard freeze so that's that.

Today's temperatures will be in the lower 60s with a low of 36 forecast for tonight. No frost yet!

We won't be getting much color here because of the warmer fall.

Our summer rain and moderate temperatures brought out the color this fall. We're also at the right latitude for leaf color.

According to the state department of conservation and natural resources, Pennsylvania has "a longer and more varied fall foliage season than any other state in the nation--or anywhere in the world. Pennsylvania’s location between 40° and 42° North latitude and its varied topography from sea level on the coastal plain to over 3,000 feet in the Laurel Highlands supports 134 species of trees and many more shrubs and vines that contribute to the display of autumn color."

I love looking at the fall colors, esp. since Southern California is not known for this, and I miss it!

Grew up near Chicago and fall colors were part of my childhood.

Thank you for sharing the wealth that you see.

Maybe because i love fall. And your photos create the perfect atmosphere. Nicely done!
