Why did West Orange have a St. Patrick's day parade today? (Hoboken: schedule, rain) - New Jersey (NJ) - City-Data Forum

I thought St. Patrick's day was last week (Wednesday?). And Hoboken had their parade 2 Saturdays ago. So I'm just gonna be running into random St. Patrick's day parades?

Because of the rains on Wednesday.

West Orange always has it on a sunday but I think it was supposed to be last sunday but was rescheduled due to the rain.

Here's the link: West Orange, NJ St. Patrick's Day Parade

And nykstevenyg is correct; the parade is normally held on the Sunday before.
