4th of July parades are getting canceled because it's too hot to exist

Original version ·

Nothing says "Happy Birthday, America" quite like canceling outdoor parades because the air has turned into soup and the pavement is literally melting.

We used to celebrate Independence Day with cold beer, cheap fireworks, and mild sunburns. Now, the main event is apparently surviving the walk to the mailbox.

Across America, cities had to cancel parades and delay events because the air has basically turned into hot soup. Emergency rooms got absolutely slammed with people suffering from heat-related illnesses because they tried to stand outside for more than five minutes.

According to experts, this is the new normal. The traditional July 4th experience is officially transitioning from outdoor block parties to huddling around the AC vent in silence.

Celebrating freedom by being legally trapped indoors by the weather is certainly a vibe.
