Autumn

Autumn (often referred to as Fall in North America) is one of the four temperate seasons, the transition from summer into winter.

Autumn and tourism

The New England region of the United States is famous around the world for the brilliance of its "fall foliage," and a seasonal tourist industry has grown up around the few weeks in autumn when the leaves are at their peak. Some television and web-based weather forecasts even report on the status of the fall foliage throughout the season as a service to tourists. Fall foliage tourists are often referred to as "leaf peepers".
