fall season, temperatures won’t be the only thing changing across the country.The transition also marks the start of fall foliage, which makes for some spectacular photos of those vibrant red, yellow and orange leaves.However, peak fall foliage season is highly contingent on your location, and in some areas that can start as early as September and peak in either October or November.That good information to remember if any leaf peepers out there are wondering how to plan a fall foliage trip.While the color of leaves depends on the chlorophyll, weather conditions during the summer or early fall can play a big role in how magnificent the sights are.Chlorophyll is a pigment that helps give leave their color.
