the maple leafs

We received a thin layer of snow last night for the first time during this fall season. I've noticed the cold snap has had one interesting consequence: Leaves have been falling all day as if loudly reminded they should be gone by now.

Are your last leaves now on the ground or will they need one more reminder?
