from 20 november - 29 november, will the autumn colors still be there in osaka and tokyo? or gone already?

The trees are just starting to turn red here in Kyoto. End of november might be near the end... not sure if any will be left...

Seems normal thou..Perhaps slightly earlier..

The leaves start changing in Kyoto sometime in October. The peak of fall foliage usually comes in mid-November, and you can usually see colors on the trees until mid-December. Thus, in an average year, the foliage season in Kyoto lasts from 15 October to 15 December, with a peak around 15 November.

japan guide give u the average dates over the past few years. it is useful for planning ahead. more accurate predictions will only be available closer to the date, and most likely u would have already booked ur trip

ohh.. its peaking earlier this year ?

It is definitely into fall weather now, and temperatures in the evening these few days have fallen to around 14 deg. Daytime temp is still in the low 20s. A couple more weeks and it will be right into it.

just remember this..

the colder the summer is, the faster the koyo will arrive..

the warmer the winter is, the faster the sakura will bloom..

Don't need to play guessing games. Already mentioned on first pg by me, kindly make use of the Koyo Walkerplus website that I have shared. This is for Kyoto prefecture data, as of currently now not exactly all areas in Kyoto are even turning up full Green at all, and obviously Koyo mi-goro (見ごろ) sightings aka blooming peak have not even arrive yet for Kyoto based on the site's data, so I don't know what you guys are panicking abt considering last yr's sightings for Kyoto are the typical mid to late-November periods as with previous yrs' Fall foliage season.

And Kyoto is not the only place in Kansai region to do Koyo spotting also, cannot see full peak there, just take limited express to surrounding areas like Shiga prefecture, or even Mount Koya/Kumano areas in Wakayama prefecture. Don't know why these days only see people associate Fall foliage with locations such as Osaka/Kyoto when its plain obvious there are so many places out there to do Koyo spotting for Kansai region as long as you are willing to do some walking/hiking.
