Foliage
Report #15
|
October 24, 2001
The foliage season continues to progress, with peak and past peak conditions
gradually pushing to the south. Much of northern New England and eastern
New York are now past peak. Portions of the southern tier of New York
have also past peak as has extreme southwest Pennsylvania. The only areas
not reporting either peak or past peak conditions include sections of
eastern Massachusetts, coastal Connecticut and Rhode Island, downstate
New York, much of New Jersey, and southeastern Pennsylvania. Foliage change
in these areas remains moderate to high.
Windy conditions are bringing down more and more leaves, as the amount of leaf drop being reported is high to nearly complete in much of the Northeast. Southern New England, downstate New York, much of New Jersey, and southeastern Pennsylvania are the exception, reporting only moderate leaf drop.
