I can't speak for all areas, but in my neck of the woods it looks like we are pretty close to being on schedule, meaning the peak to occur sometime between Oct 7 and Oct 14, perhaps towards the earlier time than late.
Unfortunately, as noted on the Foliage Network's home page:
Newsflash 4
<table class="contentpaneopen"> <tbody><tr><td valign="top">Due to a lack of foliage spotters, we regret that we will no longer be covering Delaware, Minnesota and Rhode Island.</td></tr></tbody> </table>
I just went for a ride to Marquette today and colors are further along that way than here. I would have to agree with John saying we are still a 2-3 weeks or so from our peak.
