Raleigh has canceled this evening's Holiday Express at Pullen Park because of the bad weather. Severe storms are expected this afternoon.

The Holiday Express, which started Wednesday, is still scheduled to be open from 4 p.m .to 9 p.m., Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Pullen is decorated in thousands of lights for the event, which costs $5 per person. The city will honor tickets for tonight's Holiday Express for another evening.

See my earlier post this week with more information about the event, parking and other changes this year.
