Donald Trumps supersized Fourth of July celebration is tomorrow, and its shaping up to be quite the birthday party.
However, it looks like it might rain, and well, lets just say our president isnt a fan of the rain.
The National Weather Service is calling for fog and clouds during the day with a heat index of 100 degrees. There is a 75% chance of rain with thunderstorms possible in the afternoon.
Chances of precipitation increase Thursday evening, with a 70% chance of numerous thunderstorms with clouds and some wind.
While there is usually a Smithsonian-sponsored event and a concert broadcast on PBS on the Fourth of July, Trump announced new plans for this years celebration, including flyovers and tanks, which he said in a tweet that the Pentagon & our great Military Leaders are thrilled to be doing.

It'll be a kind of redemption from the obscene, third world-style spectacle Cheeto's holding earlier in the day.

Global warming can come in handy at times.
