Due to severe drought conditions and high fire danger, the Houston fireworks show Saturday, July 1 is being postponed.
It will be rescheduled as soon as possible after a sufficient amount of rainfall, authorities say.
The city asks that citizens do not conduct any outside burning during these drought conditions, until further notice. If you choose to light a fire and it becomes out of control, you are 100% responsible for all damages to other citizens’ property, authorities say.
The City of Houston does not allow fireworks to be set off inside the city.
