Their daily paychecks will soon flitter off to the cash registers of the
bars willing to cash them and who is to say either are wrong? Not me. A
hundred dollars in my wallet has never felt as good as five bucks of
cheap hooch in my bloodstream, and if that ain’t the Lord working in
mysterious ways, then you can call me a Philistine. For in the hand of
the Lord there is a cup and the wine is red. It is fully mixed, and He
pours it out (Psalm 75:8)

It's officially announced so all the stores know when to stop selling umbrellas
and change to summer festival products.

Was thinking of visiting for the fireworks this weekend but might not risk it.

There's a chance of cancellation/postponement, but we won't know until
on the day. It would be pretty bad news for the manufacturers if they
can't release their sets on schedule - apparently about 40% of the local
fireworks makers annual sales are based from orders made by the
wholesalers wined and dined at the festival.

Still the rainy season here, but it's not actually raining.
