People love checking out leaves in the fall.  It's easily one of the best parts of the season for some, and if you want to plan your weekend trips, this map will help.

The Fall Foliage Map is here

Around this time every year, a Fall Foliage Prediction Map is released by SmokyMountains.com.  While they will admit, it cannot be 100% accurate, it can give you a pretty good indication of when leaves will begin to see mass changes, when they're in peak season, and when they're past their peak.

The Fall Foliage Map is adjustable

One of the coolest parts about this map is that it's adjustable.  It's not something that you have to bookmark and visit every single day (although you could if you wanted to see if it was correct).  You can adjust the date to see what the leaves might do on a specific day.  Maybe you'll be taking a trip or you have family photos planned.  Will the leaves be beautiful colors?  Or will they be brown and cover the ground?  That's what this map is for.

When will peak season be across New York State?

While you might see some leaves starting to change already, it's still a little early for massive color changes.  According to the foliage map, New York will see the most change around the beginning of October.  They have the week between October 7th and October 14th as the dates when most of New York will be in partial or peak season.

Be ready though...according to this map, by October 21st, most of New York will be past peak.
