The Fireworks
Observation Record

One night, the whole country's sky — photographed. The forecast made a claim about every show. Tonight, the sky answers.

The forecast

The Fireworks Index scored the sky over 1,719 shows before the first shell went up — cloud ceiling against burst height, the smoke-clearing wind, visibility, darkness.

The verification

A forecast is a claim; a photograph is the proof. Every frame you add is an observation — the ground truth the Index is measured against, one sky at a time.

The record

Fills July 4th night

As the shows fire across the time zones, the record fills — one frame of the country's fireworks, all at once. Curated as they come in.

The sky-callers

Curated, not claimed

The forecasters we're watching on the 4th. If they call the night's sky, we'll feature the call here — beside what the sky actually did. Presence here is an open invitation, not an endorsement.
