PHILADELPHIA – Celebrations for Independence Day and America’s 250th anniversary are kicking off Friday.
The heat is putting a damper on some of the plans.
Philadelphia is holding its Salute to Independence Day Parade Friday. It’s been considerably shortened due to the heat.
Philadelphia’s Salute to Independence parade was supposed to be 2.4 miles. It will now be just a mile.
The parade steps off at Independence Hall and heads toward City Hall.
The 69 News team will be live at the parade starting at Noon.
