I was expecting MORE. We have had some very cold nights — into the low 40sF. That is said to be the trigger for the colors changing. Cold nights.

I think the week or so of cold nights we had, around last week, were atypical.

I saw the first fall colors of 2024 exactly a month ago. So it is not unreasonable to have expected more color.

I did see a map, online, that said peak for central NH was mid-Oct. I am kind of surprised.

I will, of course, as I do every year, keep you updated & posted.

August 13, 2024. Same tree as in 2022!



2023 first fall color — August 4!

That was early.



2022 first fall color — August 22.


NOT as early as last year (i.e., 2023) when I saw first color on August 4.

Kind of mid-August.

Temps fell into the mid-50s (F) last night. We have had 3 to 4 cool nights. So, it is time. It is due.

I will, as of now, be on the lookout and get some pictures.

Fall is here. Summer, alas, is HISTORY.
