This picture of a maple tree in our yard is unremarkable, except for the fact that it was taken today, November 4th. Not only have the leaves not fallen, they are still green. The lilac trees behind are also still completely green. My wife is still harvesting stuff from our garden. Has this ever happened before? I don’t recall the trees being green in November.
There are always going to be outlier years, but it seems pretty clear that this is not unrelated to global warming. It’s nice, in a short term way, but also a bit scary.
