Are the leaves changing early


I had a viewer call and ask this question about leaves changing colors early. While I have noticed this in some trees this fall I don't really think you can blame it on the weather. The scientific reason for change has always been the daylight hours getting shorter. So maybe some trees have their clocks on a little earlier schedule this year. Anyway, here's site that makes for some more interesting reading on the topic.

Could we get remnants from Fay later this week?

I will try to be more diligent about posting. It's been a very quiet summer!
