Washington, D.C

In temperature terms, Saturday seemed much the same sort of day in the D.C. area as Friday. Perhaps their almost-identical warmth symbolized a zone of consistency in a world of turbulence and change.
Washington’s warm Saturday, with its highs in the upper 80s, was the first day of the long Memorial Day weekend, the weekend often viewed as the informal start of summer.
