What May feels like

May is the last easy month before the humidity takes charge, and William and Mary graduation fills every hotel room in town for a weekend. Busch Gardens goes to full daily operation, which changes the traffic pattern on Route 60 noticeably.

Rain arrives about 7 days of the month, so keep one flexible day in your plans.
