The peak of the fall foliage in the Tennessee Valley is still 3-4 weeks away. Typically, we can expect a the spectacular colors the last week of October and early November. Locally, some trees have shown some change, due in large part to the drought. Over the next few weeks, the combination of a lower sun angle and cooler nights should help begin the foliage change.
The images above were taken late Monday afternoon in the heart of the Great Smoky Mountains National park at Look Rock and Purchase Knob. The higher elevations will begin to have more noticeable change in foliage over the next 2 weeks.
