Three Tree Point, the site of a large publicly funded fireworks display saw thousands of people, possibly escaping the rain downtown, find that it was a light misty rain over the point too as cars were crammed into every available spot to attend parties, shoot off fireworks, see the big show (which is fired from a barge off the point every year) and just enjoy the national event.

Even though it was raining, people seemed to enjoy the show and as in years past could see the Quartermaster Harbor show off to the Southwest if they were on the south side of the point or in Normandy Park.
