If you’re ready for fall in Missouri, you don’t have to wait for the leaves to start changing to make plans. The Missouri Department of Conservation is tracking fall color across the state with weekly reports from foresters who know where the best colors are starting to show up.
Russell Hinnah is MDC’s Forestry Field Programs Supervisor, and he’s on Show Me Today to talk about when we’re likely to see peak color, how the weather could affect it this year, and some of the best ways to enjoy it once those reds, oranges, and yellows start showing up.
