• Parts of NY Already at Peak Foliage; When Will the Hudson Valley Turn? (hudsonvalleypost.com) — Fishkill’s fall colors are just starting, with about 15% of leaves changed compared to roughly 10% in nearby Beacon and Poughkeepsie. State foliage trackers expect the Hudson Valley’s brightest display from mid- to late October, especially if sunny days and cool, frost-free nights continue. A wetter summer may help leaves hold longer, potentially delivering a better show than last year.
