Fall is the most spectacular season in Oklahoma. The dark green foliage that comes with summer turns to bright orange, reds, and yellows. As a state with a wide variety of topographies, it is the perfect time to get out and view the beautiful colors that come with autumn. Every year, the team at smokeymountains.com predicts the timing of peak fall foliage in every state, according to their special algorithm. While many parts of the country are beginning to already see changes, the majority of Oklahoma won’t see its peak until late October.

We still have about a month to go before the majority of Oklahoma starts to see patchy to partial fall colors. This map here is a prediction for the state on October 18. The yellow and orange colors predict patchy to partial change.
