Foliage update

Peak times for the Poconos; Philly about a third of the way there.

Parts of Wayne, Monroe, and Pike Counties and across about half of Pennsylvania, autumn color has reached its peak, according to the update posted Tuesday by the state Bureau of Forestry.

The color line, meanwhile, continues to press southeastward, and areas around the Leigh Valley are at 75 percent, the bureau reports.

As for the immediate Philadelphia area, the show is just getting serious.

This will vary widely by elevation and location, but in general the trees in the southeastern region still have about two-thirds of the way to go to reach peak.

Keep the rakes handy.
