00:00Well, in a few areas across the country, you still have time to catch some of the peak fall foliage colors.
00:08Now, typically where we see past peak by this time is where you're going to see where that peak occurred in late November or late September.
00:16That's where you see those darker reds. That's going to be across the interior northeast, also across parts of the intermountain west.
00:22You can kind of see that lining up here with the current foliage tracker.
00:27You can see where areas are past their peak where we have that darker black.
00:31That's going to be across the intermountain west, the northern Rockies, the Front Range, and even some areas spotty right now in the northeast.
00:39You're starting to see those darker colors pop up across parts of the green, the White Mountains, even down through western Maine as well.
00:48So right now we're at the peak, though, if you're in the higher elevations of the Adirondacks, the Catskills, even down through central Pennsylvania.
00:56And if you look at that leaf peeping forecast here, not too shabby.
01:00Even in Breckenridge, Colorado, you'll see some leaf peeping activity there.
01:06You just got to watch out for those winds blowing those leaves off.
01:10Now, that fall foliage tracker here Thursday through Sunday, you'll note that a lot of areas across northern New England and the Adirondacks are going to be past their peak.
01:20But still, beautiful scenery and some pretty good leaf peeping conditions here, especially as that sun's going to be coming out and conditions dry out.
01:30Peak across a lot of New York State and even down through the spine of the Appalachians.
01:35And this is going to be your forecast here, your exclusive AccuWeather forecast Thursday through Sunday.
01:40So if you're out right now, you can certainly find some beautiful scenes and where we have the most vibrant colors shaping up for this year right around the Midwest.
01:50If you're still up across the U.P., that's a good area.
