As each Fall day takes away 2-3 minutes of sunlight, Accuweather, the world’s largest private provider of broadcast and on-line weather information, is offering a way to track the brightest colors of the season with an on-line Fall Foliage tracker at its website Accuweather.com.
Providing a graphic nationwide portrait of each week’s state of leaves turning from green to rusty brown, the current week’s pallet of foliage shows peak colors sliding down the continental canvas from the Great Lakes and dropping two large dabs of the loveliest to look at leaves across the border of northern Pennsylvania – with some bright colors starting to show in trees all the way across the commonwealth and farther south.
According to Accuweather’s Kate Wotring, the popular feature offers information that benefits viewers who look to the weather service for guidance in making lifestyle and leisure time choices and also enhances online services for a website that attracts more than 6 million page views each day.
Reaching more than 110 million American consumers of weather information each day, the company of 404 employees has more meteorologists forecasting weather–113–at its State College headquarters than any place in the world.
