Vibrant Colors Taking Over From Appalachian Mountains Across Southeastern Pennsylvania As Fall Foliage Nears Peak

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Attention all leaf peepers! Southeastern Pennsylvania is nearing its peak for fall foliage.

In north and western Pennsylvania the colors are starting to fade.

The Smoky Mountains predicted that mid-October would be when the leaves peaked in the Philadelphia region.
