Rain isn't the problem;  the wind is, and that seems to have declined.  Because it's a front coming through the mass of rain absorbs the energy of the wind, so the display could well go ahead.  Or not...

Watched the display from the pathway to the Cable Car station, just by the steps.

Last year there were hundreds there, this year only about half a dozen.

Weather wasn't too bad, but it certainly deterred quite a few people from attending. A fantastic display, as usual. A small fire broke out on the Pier at one point, which had to be quickly extinguished once the display ended.

I too thought it was a small fire, but from a higher vantage point, the angle I had made it look more like one of the firework pots had kept on burning.  But they are on fireproof mats so no panic, I noticed that the attendants were in no great rush to extinguish it, but they did after a couple of minutes.

Having said that, I couldn't enjoy most of the display, for fear of watching my kiosk (and others) getting showered in fiery sparks all the time!   Nerve wracking stuff.
