Forecast
Monday: High around 60F. With low temperature in the low upper 40’s. Maybe a shower or two. But reinforcement of true fall air coming.
Fall Leaves:
Color starting to show up in elevation due to cool nights and average to some below average high temperatures in the afternoon. Also time of the year when abscission process starts to occur. Basically shortened daylight hours causes reduction in chlorophyll causes this. Now for leaves changing color time frame. Right now a variety of trees showing some color but in next week or two look for Maple trees to rapidly change colors. Mid September in the high country especially. We still will have warm to average highs but this process of leaves changing has already started in the high country so we need to keep fingers crossed that heavy rain and wind will stay away til peak season for fall colors is over . ( no tropical systems allowed in the mountains) Great follow for timing for peak color is FoliageReport. Always feel free to attach me to social media post with any weather related content. Always love seeing everyone pictures and videos.
