Ashburn Fourth Of July 2017 Fireworks, Weather Forecast

ASHBURN, VA — Ashburn Village, an exclusive community housing development, has a two-day way to celebrate the Fourth of July. It's having a parade and party on the 4th, followed by fireworks on the 5th. It's free for members and $10 for guests of members. Also, members must bring their membership cards.

The parade starts at 10:30 a.m. It begins at Fincastle Field, goes to Ringold, then onto the lake patch and ends at the Pavilion. Then, from 11 a.m.-4 p.m., the party will include a DJ, a dunk tank, a water slide, a train and a moon bounce. The pool and paddle boats will be open.

WEATHER UPDATE: The weather forecast is a bit dicey. NBC Washington's Chuck Bell says storms will be a bit more likely south and west of the D.C. Metro area; he says rain is most likely between 2 and 7 p.m., but fireworks should be dry. The National Weather Service calls for scattered showers and thunderstorms after 2 p.m. Look for mostly cloudy skies with a high near 93. The chance of precipitation is 40 percent. The chance of scattered rain showers before 2 am creeps up to 50 percent. Skies tonight will be mostly cloudy, with a low around 73.

On the 5th, the fireworks will be held near the recreation center at Ashburn Lake (Cheltenham Circle and Ashburn Village Boulevard). "7th Son of West Virginia" will perform on the dock from 7-9 p.m., and the fireworks will begin at dusk.
