Maine’s Fall Foliage Still Green | Portland Maine News

Maine’s fall foliage is still mostly green, with all seven zones reporting “very low” color change — but don’t panic, the show’s just getting started. Trees begin turning as daylight shrinks and temps cool, revealing yellows, oranges, and even fiery reds without needing frost. Timing varies by region — northern and higher elevations lead the way — and weather plays a big role: warm days, cool nights = brightest hues. While last summer’s drought may mute some colors, western mountains look promising thanks to decent rainfall. With 68 years of tracking, experts say the magic is coming — and yes, raking and leaf jumping are right around the corner.
