  • FALL FOLIAGE REPORT October 8 – October 14, 2020
    Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources Bureau of Forestry PENNSYLVANIA WEEKLY FALL FOLIAGE REPORT October 8 – October 14, 2020 TIOGA CAMERON BRADFORD To predict peak season from the colors, use these guidelines: ➢ Dark Green/No Change= peak is three weeks to a month away ➢ Light Green/Starting to Change= peak is approximately two to three weeks away ➢ Yellow/Approaching Best Color= peak is approximately one week away ➢ Orange/Best Color= foliage is peaking this week ➢ Red/Starting to Fade= still some nice color but won’t last more than a few more days ➢ Brown/Past Peak= all or nearly all color is gone Statewide Fall Foliage Overview Gorgeous color continues to abound throughout Penn’s Woods! While some northern counties have begun to fade, central forests are now stealing the show. Awesome color can be found from northwestern Pennsylvania through the Alleghenies and central Appalachians, to the Pocono region. Forecasted seasonable temperatures should facilitate a gradual transition of color throughout southern areas of the commonwealth, affording fantastic viewing opportunities into late October. Northwestern Region The district manager in Cornplanter State Forest District (Warren, Erie counties) stated that cool nights have brought on a splendid array of colors on the hillsides of northwestern Pennsylvania. Although peak is still more than a week away, every shade of yellow, red, orange, and brown is represented in the forested landscape. It’s a great time to get outdoors and take advantage of the autumn experience and the many opportunities to walk forested trails carpeted in newly fallen leaves! To view and enjoy the fall foliage by vehicle, consider taking routes 666, 62, 59, or 321.
