With the restrictions and bans on fireworks I can definitely state that last night more fireworks were set off withing hearing distance of my house than any previous year - and quite a few of them were louder than any firework I have heard and lit up the neighborhood (that is including professional displays}
The house directly behind me set off quite a few that were louder than dynamite.
I think next year the earthquake detectors will have to be shut off if anymore restrictions are put in place.
Happy 4th
