DCNR Issues First Fall Foliage Report - Expect A Vibrant, Beautiful Show!

On September 30, the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources issued its first Fall Foliage Report that gives a preview of the leaf viewing season.  It concluded-- “Expect a vibrant, beautiful show!”

Although most of Penn’s Woods are still forest-green, the recent cooldown and colder nights observed statewide have spurred noticeable changes in the northern tier. 

The ten-day forecast indicates seasonable to below-average temperatures, which should compel steady changes throughout the Commonwealth. 

Abundant rainfall throughout the growing season has primed Pennsylvania forests for a fantastic fall foliage season.
