at least as of now. However, they may start up if things change. For those who travel to see them in my area, that stinks.

Anyone else dealing with canceled events on this 4th due to the weather?

Where are you, may I ask?

We, too, are expecting to be rained out but it is a game of wait-and-see.

Outside of Baltimore.

Some of the smaller towns cancelled a few days ago due to the weather report. They had their parades this moring, thank goodness. A small town parade is a wonderful thing.

Wait and see is fine when you live near the venue; when you have to travel, especially with small children....not fun. A few places have a rain date of tomorrow but calling for storms then as well. Wonder how DC is doing?

Not here. It's really hot and dry...perfect for fires getting started because of the fireworks. Wish it was rainy and stormy right now because of the high fire danger we are in and my dog is freaking out because of the noise from the fireworks. I had to sedate her last night.

Nope, we’re all set to go here!

@SilleeMee  As much as I love a good fireworks display, I always feel for the animals both domestic and in the wild. 

I can imagine the fear your dog must feel if you need to sedate her.

We had terrible storms yesterday afternoon - wind, thunder/lightning & heavy heavy rain. I was just outside and I hear thunder in the distance so more storms are rolling in for the afternoon.

Don't know if anything will be canceled for tonight, but the heat index is in the triple digits so I have no plans on going outside.

Sahmlam,

I'm in a D.C. suburb in Northern Virginia.  They predicted rain by 1:00 and so far, nothing.  Sun is still out.

Fairfax High School has posted a rain date of July 5.

The weather has been unpredictable.  Last night was the Rolling Stones concert at FedEx Field in Landover, Md.  For days, storms were predicted.  In the end, only my area of Northern Virginia had rain; Stones fans lucked out big-time.

@SahmIam  Dark clouds and sun here in eastern PA. I'm sure we'll get a shower later on in the day. I hope it's after DH is finished grilling! We have ribeyes, chicken and corn waiting for the coals!

Here in Ca...central W. Coast, fog is to roll in again tonight so fireworks are I guess off......very humid again...

Last night my neighbor let off some M-80 thingy and shook my property so hard when it went off, I almost lost my entire out door security camera system... was like a bomb, not funny at all. My property lit up...is recorded on my cameras....scared me.
