Sept 23, 2007 –
Southeast Region, including Cape Girardeau, Farmington, and Poplar Bluff:
The fall colors have not changed from last week in the Southeast Region. For the most part, leaves are still green. Some drier sites are seeing early leaf drop due to dry weather. In some locations elms and bottomland species are turning yellow. A few maples are turning orange to red. The cool weather has left and 90-degree temperatures have returned.
