In Colorado, the combination of dry conditions and high altitude makes firework-related incidents particularly hazardous. Here’s what every Coloradan needs to know about the dangers: Wildfires: Misfired fireworks can quickly ignite, leading to devastating wildfires that can destroy homes and natural areas. Altitude Issues: At higher altitudes, fireworks behave unpredictably, increasing the risk of accidents. Legal Consequences: Many areas in Colorado restrict or ban fireworks entirely. Ignoring these laws can lead to hefty fines and even jail time. In 2019, fireworks caused over 10 wildfires in Colorado during the Fourth of July celebrations alone, reminding us of the severe consequences of carelessness. Stay safe, respect local laws, and consider attending professional shows for a risk-free celebration. #ColoradoFireSafety #FireworkDangers
