Foliage color remains in the "Little/No
Change" category which is to be expected at this early
stage of the foliage season. Some early color, while spotty,
has been observed in various species of maple as well as dogwoods.
Next week, we will be watching the remnants of Hurricane Frances
as possible heavy rains and windy conditions affect portions
of the region. The good news is that no hurricanes have directly
hit the mid-Atlantic coast to this point. The hurricane season
in the Atlantic begins on June 1st and ends on
November 30th.
