Most oaks hold their green color well into fall, then turn some shade of red, although the colors are not as bright as those of maples.
Many areas of the Shenandoah Valley and Piedmont have passed peak and their full transition should be complete by mid-November, with some species of oaks lagging a little bit.
The Coastal Plain is transitioning away from green and expected to peak in mid-November. Fall color can be found on the Peninsula.
