Fall foliage prediction 2022: Peak color expected in Northern Ohio third week of October

Fall color, considered lackluster throughout much of the state last year, is expected to return to its fiery glory next month, peaking the third week of October throughout northern Ohio.

COLUMBUS, Ohio –

“We’re primed to have a good year as long as weather conditions stay conducive from this point on,” said Parrott, a fall-color expert for the Ohio Department of Natural Resources. “We’re due a better year than we had last year,” said Parrott. “I think it’s a good sign that we’re starting to see these changes statewide. At least the process is starting.”Despite his optimism, he said, Mother Nature remains in control. Extreme weather events – cold, wind, rain, excessive heat or drought – can wreak havoc on fall color.

Doug Kahn, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service office in Cleveland, said temperatures over the next couple of weeks are expected to be below normal, increasing to normal and above normal by early to mid-October. The first part of October may be dryer than normal, with average precipitation later in the month.
