The drought is going to be a big factor in this year's fall foliage -- and likely not in a good way.
Fall Foliage expert Jim Salge on where in the U.S. fall will show off its colors.
The annual fall foliage is highly contingent on your location and, in some areas, can start as early as late September and peak in either October or November. While the colors depend on the chlorophyll in the leaves, weather conditions during the summer and early fall can play a big role in how extravagant the sights are. The lack of chlorophyll can help reveal the sought-after yellow, orange and red colors, which usually are bountiful during rainier periods.
More than two-thirds of the country is experiencing drought conditions, which could lead many to believe that the fall foliage won’t be as impressive as in previous years, but Salge warns it may be too early to decide the season’s fate.
