Rainy days make for beautiful color (10/26/25) Vishal Mishra

Last weekend was rather gloomy and rainy in the Bay Area, which color spotters Vishal and Seema Mishra particularly enjoy, especially when driving through the beautiful surrounding hills.

“We drove towards Saratoga in the Bay Area and discovered some truly stunning colors emerging,” Vishal explained. “The recent rain has certainly made a vibrant impact on the foliage.”

The couple highly recommends others get out and explore in their respective neighborhoods.

Vishal also captured a few photos of Halloween decorations, which add a special touch to the fall season.

“We estimate the colors are currently in the 50-75% range and anticipate they will become even more spectacular in the coming weeks as the weather turns colder.”

Saratoga (423′) – Near Peak (50-75%) Go Now.
