The 37th annual 4th on Flagler bring friends and families to the West Palm Beach waterfront to celebrate Independence Day 2025

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Fourth of July is about all things American: parades, cookouts, cold beer and of course, fireworks. Those pyrotechnics remain at the center of Independence Day, a holiday 247 years in the making. Massive fireworks lit up the skyline of multiple American cities, marking festivities across the country.

Independence Day is always filled with festivities, and one of the many 4th of July traditions that always hold true is fireworks.

Many of the best 4th of July furniture sales are still running through the weekend. We've rounded up the best sales and deals from Article, Wayfair, Burrow and more.

Repeated rounds of stormy weather loitering off the Southeast coast could do more than just dampen fireworks celebrations in Florida this weekend – there’s a good chance it becomes hurricane season’s next named storm.
