It's that time again to look up and peep the changing fall colors.
Driving the news: This year's combination of good rainfall, sunny days and cool nights should result in a fabulous display of reds, oranges and yellows, Beth Christopher, a forester with the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR), tells Axios.
State of play: You should start seeing some patches of fall colors this week, according to the foliage predictions from smokymountains.com.
- ODNR will post updates every Thursday here.
