I've never known it happen this quickly before. Is it something to do
with the lateness of leaf fall this year, I wonder?

I suspect it's the strange weather we've been having: I've noticed the same thing in my own garden and in some clients' gardens.
The acers were the worst - instead of the usual autumn glory, I've been seeing weeks of gradual browning, one day of red (or orange) and then whoop! off they drop.
Anyone else?
