The following 2 pics by Dave Carroll on Spruce Knob as he and his Virginia Tech students did annual station maintenance that makes this data possible.

Dave also reported on and off snow showers on top today. That the trees on top were pretty much bare with decent foliage further down.

Snowshoe
-important note. Nearly 1 year ago the official Snowshoe coop MMTS was moved and a secondary sensor has been used. The data is not being used by NCEI. I believe that to still be the case. The official Snowshoe coop reported a max if 46 today. 10°off from reality. Hopefully before winter this is rectified.

Many areas, especially those that are predominantly maple, birch, cherry(which is not a good fall color species in general and drops leaves fast) aspen, that currently have good color, the leaf drop is occurring pretty fast. Seeing these fall color maps every year, they rarely resemble reality. Now, if you are in a oak dominated area, that’s a late changing tree, that also is not only late changing, it’s overall dull in color, those colors are a ways out though. Maples and birches give the best color. Those will be past peak this weekend.
