Question: How can you predict when leaves will change color in Michigan?

Answer: There are several resources, much like a daily weather or allergy forecast, that make predictions about when leaves will change color in Michigan. They also keep track of the color-changing progress at various locales throughout the state, including the Metro-Detroit area:

• The Weather Channel website posts a map of current fall-foliage conditions in the lower peninsula of Michigan.
• The Pure Michigan website (Michigan's tourism site) posts a map each year with color-change predictions across the state.
