Since most of my favorite spots around our neighborhood haven't started blooming yet, I will try to check them out again next week.
Did you ever wonder how the weather people determine when the trees will start blooming?
Apparently each area has a designated tree, when that tree has 5 or 6 flowers that have bloomed, the weather people then announce that the cherry blossom season has started for that area.
Then about a week later, temperatures and weather permitting, the flowers should be in full bloom.
Interesting, yeah?!

I like how your weather dude actually says when the trees will bloom -- me, I gotta guess by judging on current weather status, area, and elevation.
The weather people here are quite accurate, Rowena, sometimes down to the time of day!
Take care.
