Westward, areas of peak color can be found over the southern High Plains, in some of lower elevation zones along the Colorado River around the Grand Canyon and to the north.Even so, the peak and past peak zones shifted south and east 100 or more miles in some instances, a bigger change than predicted.
In the Carolinas and southward, peak foliage will shift toward the eastern Piedmont. Charlotte, Columbia and Atlanta should soon reach peak. Much of the Mid-South, including northern parts of Alabama, Mississippi and Arkansas are also on their way there. The same is true across Oklahoma while bending southwestward.
