What April feels like
April here cannot be trusted — a warm Saturday brings everyone out onto the Art Museum steps, and the next weekend it is back to raincoats. The cherry trees along Kelly Drive in Fairmount Park bloom mid-month, the local version of the Washington spectacle without the crowd.
Expect about 6 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. The air runs dry — whatever the thermometer says, it wears easy.
