This only happned in twice before in 1987 and 2012 for the bridge&#8217;s 50th and 75th annivesary. Expect crowds to be massive and public transportation, ride shares and simply walking is highly recommended.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">SAN FRANCISCO &#8211; Bay Area residents are poised to be treated to a spectacular fireworks show set off near the Golden Gate Bridge on July 4, but with San Francisco&#8217;s typical summer weather pattern, the perennial question is: Will the fog cloud the pyrotechnics?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">The most up-to-date Saturday night forecast from the National Weather Service is that there will be fog moving in during the evening hours.<\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">However, the cloud base elevation is actually the key to viewing.<\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">Some of the forecast guidance suggests that the fog might hover at a base of 1,500 to 2,000.<\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">If this indeed holds true, then fireworks viewing at 9:30 p.m. could indeed be possible.<\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">Fireworks are often shot into the sky at an elevation of roughly 1,200 feet, and therefore, the show might be able to be seen a few hundred feet under that cloud deck.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"group-source-paragraph\" data-v-4fbf7207=\"\">The Source: National Weather Service, weather forecast models<\/p>\n<p>    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ktvu.com\/tag\/us\/ca\/san-francisco\" class=\"tags-tag\" data-v-94395e58=\"\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">San Francisco<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ktvu.com\/tag\/weather\" class=\"tags-tag\" data-v-94395e58=\"\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Weather<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Golden Gate Bridge fireworks will be a rare patriotic event This year on July 4th, for the third&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":384955,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[1184,100,101,103,102,104,106,105,1181,19],"class_list":["post-384954","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-francisco","tag-ca","tag-news","tag-san-francisco","tag-san-francisco-headlines","tag-san-francisco-news","tag-sf","tag-sf-headlines","tag-sf-news","tag-us","tag-weather"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/384954","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=384954"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/384954\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/384955"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=384954"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=384954"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=384954"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
