Leaves are done here, winds last night took care of pulling rest off the trees. I'd say 95% are off and it is a 50-50 on placement between the ground and gutters.

I have quite a few red oaks, which hold their leaves longer, and some variety of maple(leaves turn yellow) that turn very late. Other than those, past peak here with leaves rapidly falling now. I will be outside all day tomorrow mowing/mulching/blowing, and will likely have to do it at least 2 more times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodhi Cove Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Gale warning legit. Getting close to 40 mph gusts and mini white caps/fetch in our cove. It's so nice to not hear loose shingles slapping the roof. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Feels like winter. Temp is falling- down to 42 degrees, and that wind is fierce. Must be gusting to 40 here. Have heard several loud thuds on the roof. There are a couple trees I need to get removed lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First flurries of the season here in last hour! Yeah I am aware of the pin oaks, but I have mostly red, black, and white oaks. Actually I think its the white oaks that hold their leaves, not the reds. Quote Many deciduous oak trees do not develop entire abscission layers in the leaf stems in the fall to cause their leaves to drop off. This phenomenon is called marescence. Shingle and white oaks tend to hold onto their dried, tan leaves across the winter. Harsh winter winds or heavy snow can tear leaves off, but usually it's not until early spring when all leaves fall away. The swelling buds on the branch twigs help complete the separation of leaves in spring. https://www.hunker.com/13427981/when-do-oak-trees-lose-their-leaves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
