The Fourth of July went well until around dusk when the heaviest rain we’ve seen in a good while washed out plenty of evening festivities.
We’ve heard more than a few complaints about the Kenan fireworks display, most of them surrounding the fact that they were snuck in during a lull in the storm and after most folks went home. Many were convinced they were going to return the next night. But the town announced Saturday morning that despite the rain the fireworks had happened.
If it makes you feel any better, the rain date would have been a washout as well, since Saturday night featured another lightning-lit soaking.
