Fall In July?

Anyone have a good answer for our reader Liz, who sent in these images? Maybe a tree expert knows; I really can’t associate this with weather at this point…

“Hi James,

I have attached some pictures of the trees around here (Blountsville) that have already started turning and the leaves are falling. I started noticing these in mid July. I am also finding more and more trees that way around here. What are you thoughts about this with the weather pattern lately?

Thanks,
Liz Dillard”
