Peak fall colors are about to burst open all over Illinois but you don't know where to go to get outside to enjoy it. Try any one of these 5 stunning spots.
It's hard to believe that we're only about a month away from the beginning of leaves changing color as Fall gets closer. There are maps and dates that will give you an idea when it will begin and peak in each different part of Illinois.
If you ask me now, I'd say that Fall is my favorite season. If you ask me in late winter, I'd probably say Spring. I do love when the Fall colors begin to get good in Missouri and I've found some helpful maps to figure out when that will be.
I normally accept whatever the weather is without complaining too much, but in this case I really hope Farmer's Almanac prediction for what Fall will be like in Missouri is wrong. Otherwise, we'll all need to stock up on water for multiple reasons.
The more things stay the same, the more they change...or something like that. This principle applies to the weather in both Missouri and Illinois and is proven again as weather forecasters have once again changed their forecast for the region now saying it will be way different than normal for the end of 2023.
Surprised by the heat that Missouri and Illinois have had to begin Fall? Don't get used to it as a sudden change in weather patterns means a cooldown is coming soon.
I argued with myself over this issue, but I'm fairly certain that I have reached my conclusion about what the best season in Missouri is. It's Fall and I'm also pretty sure that you will never be able to change my mind and I'll explain why.
