YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

For decades, fall foliage maps were mostly guesswork. Then meteorologist Evan Fisher, founder of Explore Fall, revolutionized leaf peeping by combining weather data with real-time observations to create the most accurate fall forecasts ever made. In this episode, Evan explains how this year's unusual weather is affecting autumn colors nationwide, demonstrates how his data archive can show you exactly what fall looked like when you were a kid, and reveals how he quickly adapted his leaf-tracking technology to coordinate damage reports in Western North Carolina after Hurricane Helene hit.
