Heat Halts Fourth of July Celebrations | Annapolis News

Maryland’s sweltering heat is turning Fourth of July celebrations into a safety-first scramble, with parades canceled, events delayed, and parks shortening hours—all to protect public health as temps soar past 100 degrees and the heat index climbs to 113. The Great American State Fair shut down temporarily, Capitol Fourth was pushed back, and fireworks in Poolesville were postponed due to storms. Those still out are urged to hydrate, seek shade, and watch for heat illness, as organizers ramp up cooling tents, hydration stations, and medical staff to keep everyone safe.
