Fireworks Sales Surge Amid Safety Warnings

Fireworks sales are booming in Clark County this Fourth of July, with vendors expecting record-breaking profits as Americans celebrate the nation’s 250th birthday with pyrotechnics. But behind the dazzling displays, fire departments are bracing for a surge in calls—up to triple the usual volume—due to dry conditions that heighten fire risks. Extra crews are on standby, and officials are urging caution: no relighting duds, no firing off fireworks on pavement near dry grass, and always keep water close. Some cities, like Vancouver, ban fireworks entirely, while others restrict use to specific times, with fines up to $500 for violations. Celebrate with flair, but stay safe—keep 911 clear for real emergencies and follow the rules so everyone enjoys the holiday without a hitch.
