Poor color show this year on trees and shrubs

My fothergilla, which are usually flamin' orange, are a dingy yellow. Same with oakleaf hydrangea -- no gloriously rich red this year. Even my sugar maples are a dingy shade of yellow. Come to think of it, I haven't noticed any trees in the area that are those magnificent fall shades of red and orange -- they all seem to be....dingy yellow. One exception is the Kousa dogwood I have, she is a deep, rich red.


What is the reason for this? I presume it's something to do with the weather conditions, but what specifically?
