Oh wait. It's climate change. ::)
Along with torrential downpours, temperatures ranged Thursday from the lower to middle 90s with heat index values approaching the century mark. The District issued a Heat Emergency Thursday morning and opened cooling centers.

Not ideal weather for July 4th in DC: Rain and storms move through after heat emergency
The slight Salute to America delay is not the only disruption the weather caused. Capitol Police evacuated the West Front of the U.S. Capitol due to reported lightning strikes sighted near the National Mall, a spokesman told CNN. The Capitol hosts "A Capitol Fourth" Independence Day event.
The Flash Flood Watch posted for the District and surrounding areas until 8 p.m. has been lifted, but rain is still likely in the area.
Intermittent thunderstorm warnings popped up throughout the afternoon

President Trump tweeted shortly before 6 p.m. that the crowd could still expect to see him before 7 p.m., and he stepped onto the stage just shortly after 6:30 p.m.

I feel like I missed something. Nothing too dramatic or weird about it. Kind of disappointed, lol. I wanted to see tanks driving around and stuff. They basically were angry that he gave a speech I take it.

Not sure what "they" were all pissed about ??? ::) other than "the cost" ::) ???
Great display of patriotism. Proud speech - no teleprompter - NO WAY COULD OBAMA HAVE PULLED THAT OFF! The flyovers were awesome.

Trump made his critics look small during his ‘Salute to America’
Washington Post ^ | July 5 2019 | Marc A. Thiessen
Posted on 7/5/2019, 12:49:49 AM by rintintin
The “Resistance” warned us that if we elected an authoritarian such as Donald Trump, eventually there would be tanks in the streets of our nation’s capital. Well, on Thursday, their predictions finally came true.
I’m kidding, of course, but some on the left are not. Harvard Law professor Laurence H. Tribe tweeted a photo of tanks arriving in Washington for Trump’s “Salute to America” and declared “The resemblance to days before Tiananmen Square is chilling.” At Tiananmen Square in Beijing in 1989, the Chinese regime broke up pro-democracy protests with tanks and troops in a military action that resulted in a still-uncertain number of deaths that is believed to range between several hundred and several thousand. Totally comparable situation.
Of all the stupid freak-outs we have experienced since Trump was elected, the hyperventilation over his Fourth of July address and celebration on the Mall may be the stupidest.
His critics called his decision to insert himself into the Independence Day celebrations virtually unprecedented. Sorry, but Trump is not the first U.S. president to give a major speech on the Fourth of July. Harry S. Truman once delivered an Independence Day address in front of the Washington monument. Presidents Woodrow Wilson, John F. Kennedy, Gerald Ford, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush all gave Fourth of July addresses from Independence Hall in Philadelphia. And, in 1986, Ronald Reagan delivered a Fourth of July address from the deck of an aircraft carrier, the USS John F. Kennedy, strategically placed in front of the Statue of Liberty.
Trump’s address took this tradition to new heights on Thursday. Democrats complained before the speech that Trump was politicizing the Fourth of July. He did nothing of the sort. In a speech reminiscent of his outstanding remarks last month at Normandy, ...

This event was not broadcast in my area.

Many had to watch live on Fox News YouTube channel. Dem's and their media propaganda machine are scared to death this can work against them for next year's presidential elections.

Ok? But I checked a few times and it wasn't covered by FOX-news channel?
So, you can't blame this on the main stream liberal media.
The traditional (43rd ) Congressional 4th of July celebration was covered by several media outlets including PBS.
I watched it for a few performances that included patriotic themed songs by the Muppets and many others.
I wouldn't know. I don't watch or even have the Fox News channel.

I never voted for Trump but respect the office he holds as President.
If I was lucky enough to meet him , I'd shake his hand and say;
" It's an honor to meet you Mr President."
Would you do the same if you were able to meet Obama?
No - Because I wouldn’t meet him.

Just watched the White House 4th Celebration on youtube.
Cringeworthy.

The real reason why the left was against Donald Trump's July 4 speech
(https://s2.yimg.com/lo/api/res/1.2/ndtMEskhIXavVV4jaRbBWg--/YXBwaWQ9eW15O3c9NjQwO3E9NzU7c209MQ--/http://media.zenfs.com/en-US/homerun/usa_today_opinion_532/512cf59cfacf5570b8ae966c01c20d91)
Now we know why the Democrats were so upset about President Donald Trump speaking on the Fourth of July.
It was not because it was political or partisan. It was patriotic, and that is what annoys the left the most.
Trump said, “This country (is) the most exceptional nation in the history of the world. ... It is its strongest now.” American exceptionalism annoys the left.
“We are one people, chasing one dream and one magnificent destiny,” Trump said. “We all share the same heroes, the same home, the same heart, and we are all made by the same almighty God.” Mentioning God annoys the left.
I think this should become a tradition for every president from now on. With all of the partisan political fights, it was nice to be reminded of America’s amazing heritage. It was inspiring, and that’s what we need.
For one day, Trump put partisan politics aside and focused the eyes of America on our past, present and to our future.
Thanks, Mr. President.

Great speech. A shame that anti-Americans could not appreciate a patriotic event and speech on Independence Day.
