When to see peak color at Summit Avenue (St. Paul)
Peak fall color is predicted around October 23. Plan for the strongest viewing window from October 18 to October 28.
The prediction comes from 14 years of fall color records at this spot, checked against what observers on the ground saw. Where state foliage spotters report peak (New York, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Missouri), it has landed inside our ±5-day window about two years in three. An unusual summer or autumn can still move it further. Explore fall color around Minneapolis and across Minnesota.
That is 4 days later than usual (October 19): the six weeks to October 13 ran 3.2°F warmer than the 2001–2025 average, and a warmer run before peak delays the color.
