The official data is a bit of a mess as of right now. The CDC’s official tally — just 145 cases across 17 states — hasn’t been updated since June 16, but state-level data suggests that the outbreak is growing rapidly. As CNN reports, Michigan alone has reported a whopping 681 cases since June 22; the vast majority of the 177 cases reported in Ohio occurred since June 20, while New York state has identified more than 100 in the last three weeks, without even counting New York City, which has seen some cases as well.

The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders places fireworks shows at 140 to 160 dBA — above sirens, in the range associated with impulse-noise hearing risk — and NIOSH’s exposure guidance halves allowable exposure time for every 3-decibel increase. An ordinary show delivers dangerous impulses with recovery gaps between them. This one proposes to fill the gaps with more impulses, from ten directions, for 40 minutes. The organizers appear to understand this better than their superlatives suggest. Their own event page advises that “all attendees should wear hearing protection during the event – especially young children,” concedes that the show may be difficult for veterans and people sensitive to loud noise — this for a program whose fireworks begin between 10:30 and 11 at night — and then offers a reassurance I have now read a dozen times: “Fireworks will proceed as scheduled.”
The physics of sound arrives at the same place. The National Weather Service teaches the rule of thumb that thunder takes about five seconds to travel a mile. In the 2.8 milliseconds between this show’s average launches, sound travels roughly three feet. With ten launch sites strung along a couple of miles of Mall and river, each throwing its own overlapping impulses, the arrivals will not land as distinguishable booms. They will smear into a continuous roar with no silence inside it.

State Methods of Filling Senate Vacancies Special Election Only Five states currently require Senate vacancies to be filled only by special elections; their governors are not empowered to fill a vacancy by appointment. They are Kentucky, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin. Typically, these states provide for an expedited election process in order to reduce the period during which the seat is vacant. If the vacancy falls late in the term, the seat is filled at the regularly scheduled general election.
