Leaf Peepers Update

Jump to Comments

I have been trying to take some pictures of the beautiful fall color here at Smith Mountain Lake but the cloudiness has muted the pictures enough as to be not so useful on the web. SO…in words…here is the color report.
About half the leaves have turned and it is a very colorful year! Even the oaks are showing some red which has not been the norm in the last few years.
A front has finally blown through and taken most of the cloudiness with it however it has brought some strong breezes and rain showers have been taken over by leaf showers in some areas!

The next couple of days are supposed to be pretty nice so if you live close, come over to the lake and enjoy the color!
