When fall leaves will peak in Memphis and the Mid-South

Fall began over a month ago in late September, but in Memphis and most of the Mid-South, many trees still show more green than the iconic reds, yellows and oranges associated with fall. Tennessee has a wide variety of climate patterns. With mountains in the east and the river delta in the west, leaf-color timing varies across the state, and Memphis is usually among the last places to see fall in all its colorful glory. Both the Old Farmer's Almanac and the Tennessee State Parks have released their expected dates for when Memphis and the Mid-South will be fully immersed in peak fall color. Here are the times to watch to see the leaves change color. When will leaves change colors in Tennessee? In general, leaves in the South are expected to reach peak color around mid-October at the earliest, according to the Old Farmer's Almanac.

According to Tennessee State Parks, the color change is expected to peak around early November. Trees will likely lose all of their leaves by Thanksgiving. How scientists forecast
