Just in time for the blooming of the District’s famed cherry blossoms, a new shuttle will start operating in and around the National Mall on March 12, reports the AP via WTOP.

For 42 years, District residents and tourists have seen Tourmobile’s signature blue and white buses drive circles around the National Mall. After today, the Tourmobile will be no more.

After decades of monopolizing the tourist trade around the National Mall, Tourmobile and its 1970 throwback tour buses are ceasing operations on October 31.

Good morning, Washington. Today is going to be hot, sticky and summer-like — and it may be the last day of its kind for the year as we usher in cooler weather (the morning meteorologists project that persistent 90 degree days have expired for the season). Showers are possible, but the threat of storms really increases tonight and tomorrow. We’re also in line for copious amounts of rain this week as what’s left of Tropical Storm Lee heads toward the Washington area. If you see the sun today, enjoy it.
