DC Cherry Blossoms Reach Peak Bloom Early After Warm Weather Last Week

WASHINGTON (WJZ) -- Peak bloom is here!

The National Park Service said Sunday the cherry trees in Washington, D.C. have reached peak bloom, after unseasonably warm temperatures over the last week.

If you're planning to visit the cherry blossoms in Washington, DC over the next few weeks, make sure you're aware of certain limitations due to COVID-19.

The National Park Service will limit all vehicular and pedestrian access to the Tidal Basin, E. Potomac Park and W. Potomac Park during the blooming cycle of the cherry blossoms.

You can check out the blossoms on the #BloomCam on the National Mall's website.
