Leaves in St. Lawrence County still have some time to go before hitting peak color.
According to the state fall foliage report, people can expect 45-55 percent color change. In the Adirondacks portion of the county, there is yellow, orange and some red leaves of dull to average brilliance. In the St. Lawrence River Valley, trees still contain a lot of green leaves, along with shades of red and gold.
The Foliage Network says St. Lawrence County is up to "moderate color." The outlet reports nearing peak conditions in and around the Adirondack High Peaks area.
To our west in the Thousand Islands region, up to 75 percent color change and near peak conditions are predicted for Jefferson County. Spotters in Alexandria Bay note yellow and orange leaves of average brilliance.
Peak colors are holding to our east in Franklin County. Spotters reporting from Tupper Lake and Mount Arab expect 85 to 90 percent leaf change with muted shades of yellow and orange, radiant shades of red and shades of burgundy. Spotters note this area of the state, which has been warmer than usual and has been lacking rain and frost, is usually well past peak at this time of year.
