To: worst-case scenario
I know, dear. I was being snarky.
In that context, it would have been more accurate to say “on the eve of the national holiday”.
The careless shuffling of holidays to suit the govt. schedules is a peeve of mine. The author was just reinforcing that foolishness by stating that our July 4th was actually July 3rd!

On the other hand, July 3rd was the national holiday... with July 4th being the actual historical day . There is a difference and we're all aware of what days holidays are "actually" and what days they are "observed" on... it doesn't take a lot of explanation or justification for people to realize what is going on here ... LOL ...
