Show Notes

On the winding roads near Grandfather Mountain, the first streaks of red and gold are beginning to show. But if you wait too long this year, you may miss them. A drier-than-normal fall across much of North Carolina, layered on top of a long-term warming trend, is threatening to dull the brilliance and shorten the window of one of the state’s most cherished autumn traditions. Robert Bardon, Professor of Forestry at N.C. State University, joined Jeff Hamlin to discuss the impact of climate change on the fall colors.
