Maryland Fall Foliage Peaks in Annapolis and Eastern Shore
The Maryland Department of Natural Resources has reported peak fall foliage in Annapolis, Baltimore, and the Eastern Shore, making this weekend the ideal time for leaf peeping in these areas. Western Maryland is past its peak, while regions like Somerset and Worcester counties are approaching or at peak color. The foliage features vibrant hues of bold maples, ochre oaks, and neon reds. Additionally, the DNR has issued a warning about the start of fall wildfire season due to dry, leaf-covered ground. Early risers on Saturday, November 7, can also catch a celestial event with a crescent moon and Venus visible in the southeast sky before dawn.
