Milford Fireworks Display Postponed Due to Weather

This year's Independence Day fireworks display in Milford has been rescheduled due to the weather forecast, the Milford Police Department announced Wednesday. 

Originally scheduled to take place on Thursday, July 3, the fireworks will now be held on Saturday, July 5 starting at about 10 p.m. at Clark Island on Milford Pond. 

Thursday night's forecast includes showers and thunderstorms in the area, with some storms possibly producing small hail, gusty winds and heavy rain. There is 60 percent chance of rain, with current rainfall amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible, according to the National Weather Service.

Milford residents looking to watch the fireworks should note that because Plains Park is currently closed for repairs, viewing will be available at Fino Field.
