Fireworks

[jamiesquared.livejournal.com]

Does anyone know when they would cancel the fireworks for tonight? I have family coming for dinner and to watch them so I would hate to have them come if its going to be stormy out. Weather.com says 60% chance for thunderstorms which is up from last nights forecast of 40%.

I called the city and they weren't too much help. The woman basically said she has no idea when they would make that decision and how they would communicate it to the residents.

The city web page about the event gives the detour route for buses 80 and 89. Presumably that's how the cars will go, too.

No, the cars, at least the ones who want to go eastbound on Broadway, go down my street on the way to Highland Ave, and back up from the traffic light at Highland and Cedar all the way back to Boston Ave. And last year a gasoline tanker got stuck trying to make one of the turns. If they had a cop routing some of the cars down Highland Rd, it would be less of a problem.
