Maine's Fall Foliage Turns Early As Drought Worsens

Maine's fall foliage is turning slightly ahead of its usual pace, a shift WMTW is tying to drought conditions across the state. WMTW's Emily Pike pointed to locations around Maine where viewers can see the changing color, even as the drought continues to worsen. The station's report featured a look at where viewers can go across Maine to see the foliage. WMTW did not detail exactly how many days ahead of the normal schedule the change is running, but said the same drought conditions are driving the earlier turn.
