A lot of the leaves have been dying and dropping for the last month.
We went rafting on the Dead river in Maine this weekend and colors from here to there were pretty dismal. Seems that the most colorful tree's are in or around swamp area's which is not unusual even on a good year.
From my house here in Belmont most tree's are already bare, especially the oak tree's. Some maples have color but most of the color on the leaves has a brown ring where the leaves are dying as they are starting to get color.
On the up side the traffic was none existent coming home last evening, that is always a plus.
