Summary
Tampa Bay’s Fourth of July just got a lot quieter — due to extreme drought, personal fireworks are banned in Manatee and Sarasota counties, and even in areas without official bans, outdoor burning including fireworks is still prohibited. With water supplies critically low and fire danger soaring, officials are urging everyone to skip backyard fireworks this year, even as stands remain open and some residents plan to light up anyway — all while professional shows go ahead with firefighters on standby.
