Fall foliage certainly did not disappoint this year, but the season is coming to a close in most of the state. However, from York into the Philadelphia region, peak color is still ongoing. The drought both helped and hurt this season, as colors were more vibrant but the season was cut short. Now, widespread leaf…

This will be the best weekend of Fall 2020 to get out and enjoy the peak foliage in much of the state.

It is becoming clear, thanks to all the photos from those in northern PA where foliage colors are peaking, that the 2020 Fall Foliage Season will be the best in several years.

Despite the recent warmth, we’ve seen some cold mornings which have helped keep foliage change on track.

Fall colors didn’t make much progress this past week, due to well above average temperatures until Thursday.
