Thursday July 3rd event updates

The July 4th celebration is now July 3rd!!

Here is what you may need to know.

As most of you already know the concert and fireworks planned for July 4th on the Esplanade has been moved due to the Friday weather forecast. The Event will now take place today. 

While this seems simple enough it really does cause a lot of issues for anyone working in Boston today. First off today is a business day in Boston and you can count on major rush hour delays both in the morning and evening rush hours.

I have been e-mailed, and sent Twitter DMs, plus looked up as much information I could to share with you to help you get through this nightmare.
