Fireworks won't rain over Paris, Illinois on Independence Day. That's according to our sister station WCIA.

There have reportedly been four fires within the last 24 hours around town because of the dry conditions.

The fire department says the rest of the 4th of July activities will take place as planned. Fireworks may also be rescheduled for September.
