DCNR’s 2nd Fall Foliage Report: North Of I-80 Has Best Colors So Far

On October 7, the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources issued its second Fall Foliage Report that gives a preview of the leaf viewing season.  

Northern counties continue to progress rapidly to peak foliage after last week’s cold nights. 

Expect the above-average temperatures and humidity this week to slow the transition of leaves in much of the Commonwealth, however. 

Fall foliage sightseers are advised to travel north of U.S. Route 80 for the best colors in Pennsylvania, currently.

To plan your fall foliage traveling, visit DCNR’s Prime Locations For Viewing Fall Foliage in PA interactive map and the Fall Foliage VisitPA website.
