September 2nd and I have walnut trees whose leaves are starting to yellow.  Maybe a reason linked to colder, wetter weather:    www.canr.msu.edu/news/walnut_anthracnose_is_putting_an_early_end_to_many_leaves

Is there much wood left in NW England?

That's what I'm going with.....or at least the lack of sunlight associated with cloud.

Yellowing has become rapidly more noticeable locally in UK as the week went on. I'm betting as the next week is forecast to have much more sun, the process will slow somewhat.

Since fall doesn't start for another 3 weeks, that is encouraging.

Just returned from the Great North where Aspen trees are starting to turn. I stopped on the Coq at the summit for some coffee, where usually a vendor is selling food and beverages out of a trailer. I inquired about how long the season was for them to be open before having to close because of weather and was told last year they managed to stay open till Nov 7th but this year they have already had some freezing at nights. A portent of the coming Winter?

You'll be digging peat soon if you can find a moor.  We have shallow coal seams, but unlike before gas, nothing to burn it in.

I lost a very large and beautiful Western Red Cedar in my yard to some imported fungal disease a few years back.  Just sad.  Also have been battling Anthrancose in many of my plants.  I fear the for large Honey Locust growing off my back deck as this year half the tree went without foliage.  Arborists are mixed about what is wrong, we have tried soil injections and are hoping for the best.

I lost an ancient hackberry tree that shaded two-thirds of the house and the deck to a microburst about four years back.  Cannot be replaced in my lifetime.
