    These are all today. The colors have changed faster than I ever recall. The Red Oaks (top third of the hill) are changing nearly a month early, likely due to the drought. 19E6E9F3-685C-422B-9BF5-442D7B663357.jpeg FF50CFB1-65BC-4179-BB48-4471A37CC514.jpeg 611E3DA5-0DEC-4A5E-8E5C-57C12706BA23.jpeg 7DD8391A-D16E-4CA9-A335-6B2AB189A17E.jpeg

    It's the same here, we have some really nice colors but I haven't taken the picture taker yet because I've been driving and there's a ton of traffic.

    Any areas that don't get a good amount of sun haven't changed yet or are changing slowly.

    Really stunning colors so far this year in NW CT. The wet, low spots started turning a couple weeks ago. Everything else started early last week. Birches and maples came in FAST during that four night stretch of low 30s. Hit 29 with a hard frost the third night. Here’s a picture from yesterday morning before the clouds rolled in. Oaks and hickories are still just thinking about showing some color. Everything else is really bright and popping.

    The color peaked this week and last night's rain took a lot of leaves off the trees. I'm surrounded my oaks and maples

    My front yard... with wood piles.

    Colors have peaked already...last week Thu and Fri were the best. Now, it is amazing how many trees are over 75% bare! (had a wind storm blow through....)

    I originally posted these 2 pictures in the off topic section. I hadn't realized there was a Fall Color thread here. When the post got moved the pic might not have made it.
    Here they are in the correct thread....
