BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — As the days and nights continue to get cooler fall is slowly creeping its way into Western New York and if you're looking for some beautiful fall foliage you wont have to go far.

The second 2020 I LOVE NY Fall Foliage Report was released Wednesday and Ellicottville made its way onto the report described as "just changing."

"Spotters at the Nannen Arboretum in Ellicottville, Cattaraugus County, predict up to 15% color change this weekend with touches of red and pops of bright yellow among the mostly green leaves. Spotters reporting from Lime Lake in the Town of Machias predict 10% color change with touches of emerging," the report states.

The reports are obtained from volunteer field observers and are released each Wednesday afternoon, they reflect the expected color conditions for the weekend.
