Saw this today. Wasn't there yesterday. Some of us actually want this Hurricane to hit. lol Maybe not for the destruction but we can use all the water it will give.

October just started, we have scattered colorful trees here and there
Lots of Vivid Reds & Oranges this year. No color enhancement with this just taken from here near the coast. We're gonna peak quick if these fall like temps keep going (and they should)
This is by a college in the area. The ground is starting to look like Fall. :-). You can see the reds in the background.
Where I used to live (North-East Ohio), the leaves followed an odd pattern. Completely green, a little bit of colour appearing gradually, every tree becomes very colourful (happens practically overnight), all the leaves fall in just a few days (after a few days of "full colour"). It was always disappointing how quickly it was over with because the colours were so nice there with the number of trees in the area. The winters were great, though.
Last year there wasn't really much of a colour change here (Platte Purchase) because of how mild it was...the leaves just kind of gradually went from green to brown and then fell. It was kind of depressing. Hopefully this year will be better, similar to how it was when I lived in this area the first time (2007-2010).
