jonjon Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Got out on my bike yesterday. Shot this from an outcropping on Canaan Mountain. You can see the Town of Davis in the distance. A bit past peak but still pretty out there. 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2va Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Just got to Deep Creek. Peak foliage here this weekend in time for the annual Autumn Glory festival....will take a few pics when I’m out and about. Great weekend for WxUSAF to also be in the area (not great weather unfortunately). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2va Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Best foliage in years...dry weather has helped bring out the colors. Lots of people here for Autumn Glory. Here’s a random farmhouse near Oakland. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxUSAF Posted October 10, 2020 Author Share Posted October 10, 2020 Foliage is gorgeous here at DCL!! We tried to go to Swallow Falls SP, but the line to get in was huge and we turned around. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nw baltimore wx Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 It’s been awhile since we’ve had a good fall, so this nice to see. https://wtop.com/local/2020/10/get-ready-for-really-good-color-this-fall-foliage-season/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Some decent color here now...highlighted by the early morning sun in this photo. Not sure how colorful it will be here though, given we have had 30+ inches of rain in the last 3 months. Seems like plenty of leaves are coming down already. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it'll be the same here in the city/Baltimore county? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I’ve read, the color in central MD should be fantastic this year. We will know by next weekend as things really get going during this dry, cool stretch.

You don't want it too wet, but if its too dry(like last year) the trees get stressed and drop bunches of leaves early. Normal precip during the summer and then somewhat dry for early Fall is probably ideal, along with seasonable weather. Need those chilly nights. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterWxLuvr Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Pic I took from up at the place I’m building near Davis. This was in Oct 10. Leaves were pretty much gone up there this past weekend. Edit: I guess not. Need somebody to help me figure how to upload a pic this size Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxUSAF Posted October 26, 2020 Author Share Posted October 26, 2020 I’ve been a little underwhelmed with the foliage so far. Maples have been fairly lackluster it seems. My sassafras is gorgeous though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxdude64 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Basically done here, peak was about 8-10 days ago. A few stragglers, but the hills have large open and/or brown patches now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of the trees native to the region, I feel like the various maples provide the best color, but maples aren't pervasive enough in this area to put on quite that much of a show. The huge beech trees in my neighborhood look really nice (bright yellow) for about a week, but they start to turn mottled yellow/brown pretty quickly.

I mean, nothing like the mountains or New England. But I think we definitely have better or worse foliage years. Weather conditions seemed promising for one of the better ones this year, but hasn’t really delivered IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Its mostly yellows and oranges around here. Some red, but not much. Most of the maples are "swamp", so just more yellow. Its always pretty much the same- some trees peak early and are bare by the time others are at peak.To me, its decent, but I have never thought the color looked spectacular here, regardless of how wet/dry/cold/warm it is.

MN Transplant Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I'm pretty happy with the color here. The main problem is that the timing is never right to get everything going at once. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half of the trees have reached peak/dropped much of their leaves, the woods are very thinned out, but still plenty of green. I have every type of oak, plus hickory, maple, and other random stuff.
