Fall Foliage Report - Oct. 16, 2013

The bright sunny days and cool, crisp nights we're experiencing now are ideal conditions for trees to bring out their fall colors. These colors are revealing themselves across the state.

In Southwest Virginia, colors continue to transition away from green. In the higher elevations near Abingdon, colors are at peak.

In the New River Valley, approximately one-quarter to one-third of the trees have color. In the Allegheny Mountains, significant color change can be seen in Highland County. In the Shenandoah Valley, the fall color change is underway.

Fall colors continue unfolding in the Piedmont and Coastal Plain.
