() The body of former President Jimmy Carter is scheduled to arrive in Washington on Tuesday, where it will lie in state ahead of Thursday’s state funeral at Washington National Cathedral.

Carter, who died at the age of 100 last week, had been lying in repose at the Carter Center in Atlanta before the 39th president’s remains were taken to Dobbins Air Force Base on Tuesday. Inclement weather on the East Coast delayed transporting Carter’s body to Washington by about 90 minutes Tuesday.

A small ceremony with Carter’s family took place at the Georgia Air Force Base before Carter’s remains were to be flown to Joint Base Andrews in Maryland, where another ceremony was scheduled to be held.

Carter was scheduled to be taken to the U.S. Naval Museum before the former president’s remains will be transported to the U.S. Capitol. Carter served in the Navy before he became a Georgia state senator and the state’s governor.

Vice President Kamala Harris will deliver a eulogy at a ceremony for lawmakers Tuesday afternoon before public viewing at the Capitol Rotunda begins.

President Joe Biden will deliver a eulogy at the national funeral ceremony Thursday, which will coincide with a national day of mourning. The most recent national day of mourning was held in 2018 following the death of President George H.W. Bush.

Carter will then be returned to his hometown of Plains, Georgia, where he will be buried next to his wife of 77 years, Rosalynn Carter, who died at the age of 96 in 2023.
