Rain showers are expected today in Mills River with highs around 88°F, so have an umbrella handy if you're heading out to any of the many Fourth of July celebrations happening throughout Western NC. Lake Lure is fully restored and drawing crowds for Independence Day festivities for the first time since Hurricane Helene, while Asheville and surrounding towns are hosting parades and block parties to mark America's 250th birthday. The air quality is good, making it a decent day overall despite the chance of showers.
