FallFoliage

Our dry September continues. Its been over 7 days since we had our last good soaking and no significant rain is in the forecast.

Is this impacting the leaves? While I’m no expert, I always thought that a dry fall would make the leaves dry up and wither away instead of changing to the annual brilliant colors. But I could be wrong. I know change in he angle of sunlight as well as temperature change, especially differences from day to night also impact leave changes as well. It’s ideal to have cool nights and warm days. We certainly have been having warm days, if not hot, but until recently the nights haven’t been all that cool.

Regardless Fall officially arrives on Wednesday. Ironically it will be milder on Wednesday and Thursday with daytime highs in western new jersey approaching near 80. Cooler weather looks to arrive over the upcoming weekend. There could be some showers early next week or even as soon as Sunday. But it doens’t look like a soaking at this point.
