"Cherry Blossom Highlights in Washington, D.C."
Washington's cherry blossoms reached peak bloom, attracting thousands of visitors and resulting in stunning photographs shared by Capital Weather Gang readers. Despite potential petal-stripping winds, the cool weather pattern should keep the blossoms in full bloom into the weekend as the National Cherry Blossom Festival begins, although a Saturday rainstorm may signal the end of this year's bloom. Additionally, the celebrated cherry tree nicknamed Stumpy has become a highlight of the 2024 bloom, earning the title of "most photographed" and "best in show."
