DailyMail has an article out 8/28/17 showing earlier Fall this year, with the NorthEast Kingdom near Peak on Sept 23rd(like in 2014). The colors are also predicted to last longer this year than last year--From the Smoky Mountains website,an Algorithm with several million data points,and 50,000 predictive data pieces. Based on NOAA historical temperatures,precipitation forecast,forecast temps,forecast precipitation, and historical leaf peak trends----Although its been said that predicting when and how good a Fall season may be, is more of an Art than a Science,perhaps the Science is catching up
