    You can always find pockets or individual specimens of color if you spend enough time looking. I drove out toward Barkhamsted earlier in the week and don't believe I passed a single tree that struck me as vivid... and that's a fairly robust tour of the NW hills where people live, not just zipping through on a generic freeway.

    Nah. Best CT foliage season in many years. Vibrant

    I call bunk on that and the pictures I took two weeks ago show that.  I have a large bare maple tree in my yard that had nice color when it was in bloom.  You can't make blanket statements like "all over NE CT" when you haven't been "all over NE CT".  I'm just just glad I don't live down by you and had nice colors in our maples here.

    You live right by me lol. There’s no difference

    I'm also surrounded by hills higher than you.  I don't know what to tell you - lots of bare maples around here.  The ones down by you still have leaves?

    The ones that typically turn orange all browned out all over NE CT . They went green to ugly to bare . The red maples are turning now, but seem more brown /red

    You are south of me.  That would be "down" and that's why I said what I said.  Today on my ride into work I noted a number of bare maples and even whole sections of woods that have bare maples.  That's why I said what I said.  Apparently down the street and a few miles south of me the maples haven't even turned.  I'm guessing that's why you said "let's see how the red maples do" because they haven't changed yet.

    You’re basically Ene of me. Same lat. Just lower down in elevated valley

    I don't know about down there, but a lot of maples here have already turned.  There's stretches of roads with bare trees because of that.  The season is not over but it looks like were going to have like two different peaks, at least around me - one for maples and one for everything else that was more delayed.

    Down there? We live at same latitude and my elevation is up there

    Maybe we are waiting for that color burst down here but in comparison to our better years things are  a bit dull,  brightest early trees went by and the next wave has lacked vibrance but there is still quite a bit of green so  its certainly not a completely done deal here yet.

    Maybe the last batch does better.. but everything so far has gone dull orange/ brown and quickly fallen . Let’s see how the red maples do

    Not sure how much CT was affected by the New Years event.  May not have made it that far south and west.

    Yeah we snowed in NE CT. It’s a good spot. Far enough north and east to rarely miss snows from an Eastern New England event . Just not a jack

    Impressive transitory character to this new pattern ...

    On the rough it's like...  65 today; 40 if we're lucky tomorrow;  60 Friday/Sat;  40 Sunday ...  

    up down up down...

    The northern stream tends to relax in the longer term, at which point the thickness tapestry from the NP-Lakes -OV ..NE has shed some 10 to 15 dm and no means to recover ... leaving a much more Novembery look - this whole period symbolically was a rasp to erode the last vestiges of the warm season...
