I've never seen so many Cherry Blossom postings on here . So this year seems different

I think the FOMO over the cherry blossoms has been amplified by social media.

A few years ago we had a brilliant day similar to this - 68 degrees, sunny, blue skies - that coincided with peak bloom. It was pretty busy but it didn't seem anywhere as crazy as it does this year. Not nearly as many blossom photos on Reddit either.
