Tall Ships Concert Canceled, Fireworks Rescheduled Over Rain

A concert by the United States Military Band and fireworks show scheduled for Saturday as part of the Tall Ships Philadelphia-Camden festival have been canceled due to the weather.

The fireworks show "Where America Set Sail" is being moved to Sunday at 9:30 p.m., organizers said. It will feature nautical shaped fireworks and more than 5,000 explosives in all.

The performance by "Perishing's Own," the Army band, will not be rescheduled. The group was set to play before the fireworks show.

Heavy rain is expected to move in Saturday afternoon prompting the National Weather Service to issue a Flood Watch through late Saturday night.
