Over a decade ago Michael Denslow and I created a fall color map showing when peak colors would occur in the western part of North Carolina (covering the mountains and foothills and a portion of the Piedmont). This map accounted for both elevation effects (earlier the higher up you are) and latitude (the farther north you are the earlier).

By using both latitude and elevation (which many other maps do not do), we believe we have a more accurate representation of peak fall color times. Of course, times can change due to weather, so these are approximate dates. Note that I also changed the dates to a week or so range instead of putting up a single day, which better reflects not only when the colors will be at peak, but a crude guess for how long also.

By including latitude and elevation we can explain why Highlands, which is almost two degrees farther south than Boone has peak fall colors at nearly the same time. This is because Highlands is almost 1,000' higher in elevation than Boone, and being higher is, weatherwise, like being farther north.

The reason I am posting this new map is that due to climate change, the old dates appear now to be out of sync with when colors actually do peak. In response to that, I have changed the dates on the map to better coincide with what I am actually seeing in the field. That map is attached here for your perusal.

For media people, you are free to use this map in your broadcasts as long as you credit Michael Denslow and myself as the creators.

Enjoy!
