Cherry Blossom Peak Bloom Predicted To Be Sooner Than Expected

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- The cherry blossom peak bloom dates have changed yet again, but this time they moved up!

The National Park Service now says the peak will start Thursday and continue through Sunday. The service says it is impossible to predict peak bloom more than ten days in advance.

Upcoming windy weather and cold temperatures may affect the trees and many are concerned the dates will get pushed back again.
