What October feels like
October is the handover: the first two weeks often stay golden and walkable, then the rain settles in for the duration. The maples along the Arboretum's Azalea Way turn first, so go before the wind takes them down.
Rain arrives about 8 days of the month, so keep one flexible day in your plans.
