Now is the time to see the foliage in Minnesota, northern Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. All of these areas are reporting high color (61% - 80% change) to peak color (81% - 100% change). Elsewhere in the region, foliage change is low (11% - 30% change) to moderate (31% - 60% change).

Leaf drop in Minnesota and western Wisconsin is moderate which is to be expected when the foliage color reaches peak levels. The remainder of the region has low to very low leaf drop.
