Most of the Northeast is showing at least moderate (31% - 60% change) color. High color (61% - 80% change) can be found in southern Maine, much of central New Hampshire, the lower elevations of Vermont, the Berkshire Mountains in Massachusetts, most of New York's Southern Tier, areas surrounding the Catskill and Adirondack Mountains in New York, a good portion of northern Pennsylvania, the mountains of southwest Pennsylvania and in Connecticut, portions of the northeast and southwest. Peak foliage conditions are being reported in central Maine, northern New Hampshire, the White Mountains of New Hampshire, much of northern Vermont and the Green Mountains in Vermont, and much of northern New York and the Catskill Mountains in southeast New York. Peak has now passed in the northern half of Maine, extreme northern New Hampshire and parts of the Adirondack Mountains of New York.

Leaf drop is mostly low to moderate but in areas that have passed peak, leaf drop is now high.
