NASCAR Chicago Street Race: Time, TV channel for Week 2 of TNT coverage
Through two years of the Chicago Street race, rain tires have been a necessity both times. This year's needed accessory will be air conditioning. Oh, and maybe rain tires again, depending on a dicey Sunday afternoon forecast. Advertisement One full weekend of cooperative weather would be nice. You could even call it a parting gift if you like. That's right, this is looking like it'll be the final Chicago Street Race — the third installment of NASCAR's original three-year contract with the city. NASCAR's Chicago Street Race has provided unique scenery the past two years. No one is saying it out loud, but you know what else they're not saying? Oh yeah, we're definitely coming back next year. It's more like, let's talk about this later. Anyway, it's a different type of racing — like a road course but without much room for error. Completely different backdrops, of course, since major metropolitan areas aren't usually seen just beyond Turn 2. So it's worth a watch, and here's how to do that.

How the Weather Could Make Your Fireworks Fizzle
If you're planning to light your Whistle Spliffs, cherry bombs, Ghost Rings (with or without the Afterglow Pistil), or a single whistling moon traveler this weekend, you may want to pay close attention to the weather. From thunderstorms and lightning to trapped layers of smoky air, here are the many ways the weather could dampen — or enhance — your fireworks display. Rain: Not a party stopper Though it may make sitting outside waiting for the show miserable, rain, by itself, won't dampen an explosion because fireworks burn so hot. Many local shows around the country will go ahead in the case of rain, but lightning nearby generally means the show will not go on. Some of the biggest professional displays around the country have occasionally been called off. In Washington, D.C., the National Park Service will cancel or delay the fireworks display if there is inclement weather, such as driving rain, high winds, lightning or low-ceiling cloud cover in the area. This year, the nation's capital won't be facing these hurdles. 'We're going to have super weather here in Washington, D.C.,' said Bob Healy, a park ranger. 'There's supposed to be relatively low humidity compared to our heat wave in the prior weeks. Sunny weather, but relatively cool.' Wildfires have a favored holiday More human-caused wildfires were discovered or confirmed around the July 4 holiday than at any other time of the year, according to records dating to 2014.
