I heard it was because it was so dry in New England this year (and colder than usual.) This is near wetlands, where the color changes first, but it is still September.
This was taken on Nov 24th, 2009 from one of the overlooks along the road to Crater Lake. I went to this spot a few days ago (Nov 21, 2010), almost one year to the day, and saw the exact same scene... This shot begged to be posted -- Delaware Water Gap NRA

Morristown is the county seat of Morris County in New Jersey located about 25 miles from New York City. It is a city rich with history, a key location for the Continental army not one winter but two winters during the American Revolution. Morristown was originally settled by English Presbyterians in 1715. At Dickerson’s Tavern on Spring Street Benedict Arnold was court-martialed because of charges that he was guilty of profiteering from military supplies in Philadelphia. Founding father Alexander Hamilton met and courted his wife Betsy Schuyler who was from Albany but her family kept a home in Morristown. This image is of the fall foliage in early November 2014, as it is basically at peak with all variation of leaf color visible from this vantage point.
Along the northern edge of the hayfield, these oaks get full sun, which they love. They were little trees when we moved here 35 years ago.
Partly blurred due to wind but I like the golden color or almost terracotta and the bokeh/dof myself ;) What do you think?
The Sugar Maples are turning early this year, mostly orange. I got a few shots, but I'll miss all the rest, as we are heading off [at a bad time of year].
This shot is from last year, but this is what the fields look like now, at about 50% color. So sorry about those wires ...
