Heat wave grips Eastern US, forces July 4 event cancellations

A severe heatwave affected much of the eastern United States, leading to the cancellation of several July 4 events, including parts of the Independence Day festivities on the National Mall and the annual Independence Day Parade in Washington. Over 160 million people were under heat warnings, with temperatures reaching near record levels. Organizers had to postpone activities due to safety concerns, and emergency services responded by setting up cooling centers and extending pool hours. Despite the challenges, some individuals still attended events, showing resilience against the extreme conditions.
