JETAA Hanami Forecast

Events, JETAA Chapters, Uncategorized Add Comment (2)

Remember in Japan how the news would show the hanami progressing across the country, akin to a weather forecast?  U.S. geography isn’t quite as conducive to that approach, and I can’t really picture any local news channels taking that approach anyway.  But now JetWit is providing you with the next best thing:
