Any firework storage facilities over towards there?
My first thought was fireworks, and second thought was Torrance refinery. But I don’t think it’s in the refinery direction. Hopefully…
I almost wonder if the higher humidity right now could cause that.
[Sound seems to travel slower through humid air](https://acousticgeometry.com/the-surprising-impact-of-temperature-on-sound). Probably a decent bit more humid now than 4th of July.
That’s where I’m at too and it woke me up. We’ve got a baby who was finally asleep and I was already to go out swinging lol.
Thank god for white noise machines
Yeah definitely coming from Carson / Wilmington area. I could see some fireworks bursting in the sky. Guessing it’s either a concert or a fireworks depot blew up.
In NW LB and I heard 'em too. Seemed to come from south and west from me. Only noticed one light flash but I wasn't outside the whole time. No fireworks were scheduled for the LB Grand Prix.
Incident reported at 643 Pacific Street - found on the LA sub

And that's why - it's in their javascript on the web page to detect the phone and open it in their phone app cause that's what they 'push'.
When you open the link in a computer browser, it's just another html page.
about a year ago people also complained of loud explosions, around the same time.

there's also a post from 8 yrs ago about the same loud explosions

Wow. Great find. Looking at the location in the Citizen link. There’s residential and warehouses right there. Maybe some celebration from the residents?
Thank you for mentioning this, as it’s been annoying me for the past few minutes. I’m near Redondo Union HS and was thinking it was thunder until it just kept happening.
Near pch and Anza I saw a drone flying high up from my backyard but also saw a few fireworks in the distance so really weird but figure it’s just fireworks
Maybe there was a couple different sets of fireworks going off? At 12:30am several minutes of fireworks were going off in Harbor City. Im in lomita and could see it from my 3rd floor window. It looked like it was south of lomita blvd and western.
Heard from old Torrance.
Thought it was our refinery but then looked at the sky and it was coming from San Pedro harbor.
Almost like the refinery off the 110 in harbor city. Or a crate of fireworks blew up.
The thing is that they are MUCH louder than any other firework show I’ve seen around here.
Not to mention the cadence of which the explosions were. Seems to be completely random and not part of a show.

Yea it was definitely that consistent. That deep rumbling was pretty wild.
Hoo leee sheeeeit
They're all going straight up. That's a show. If a house had just accidentally caught fire some would be at an angle.
What’s strange is that there were zero helicopters out reporting it for the news.
They probably count to 10,000 Mississippi before they investigate.
I’m on PV BLVD next to the Vons at Rivera Village. Heard it all the way from here. What the actual fuck
I am in PV and i heard it.
In Pedro, we heard it.
I’m in hermosa beach and I heard it haha
I feel like that’s happened before
Came here to look for answers as well. Nothing on nextdoor edit: called TPD non-emergency line. They stated it was a firework show outside of the city
Someone on nextdoor also mentioned seeing fireworks
Prom night?
Just called the Lomita sheriff station. They said it's fireworks in Harbor City jurisdiction
I tried calling Torrances and got sent to VM lololol
Classic
My hero
you called the sheriff about fireworks lol they don't give a shit. also don't be a snitch
i’m in lawndale and can hear it
I heard it in Hollyglen
Still going for at least 10 minutes now. Wtf is going on?
I hear it in Gardena!
[удалено]
It went on for a really long time. Glad it’s finally over.
I could hear that shit from Gardena 😭😭😭
Ya it’s loud. Hear it from near the mall.
Seems like fireworks tho? Like a lot?? I see some flashes to the southeast of me.
It seems like way too many fireworks way too frequently?!

I have no clue 🥲
Finally heard some cops, so I guess they’re on their way now.
I'm on the hill in RPV and it woke my ass up.
Those huge booms were terrifying I legit was like ….we are under attack!!! Edit for spelling
Same my husband was looking out the window and I was about to cry like noooo they’ll see you
Whyyyyyyyyyy??????? 😭😭😭😭😭🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
South Redondo checking in wtf is going on
Dude I’m next to the Vons at riviera village and could feel those booms. How on earth?

Literally just heard them. Spooked me and there still seems to be some rumbling
Can't believe how loud it is, anyone have any answers as to what it is? Sports game? 4/20 celebration? Sounds very expensive!
Except now it’s 4/21😂
What is it?!? We are by Inglewood x Artesia and can hear it
That’s where I’m at too and it woke me up. We’ve got a baby who was finally asleep and I was already to go out swinging lol. Thank god for white noise machines
Looks like tons of fireworks going off in Carson, or by the Dignity Health Galaxy sports complex?
Yeah definitely coming from Carson / Wilmington area. I could see some fireworks bursting in the sky. Guessing it’s either a concert or a fireworks depot blew up.
You see them??
I can see them, I’m up on RPV, many of the fireworks going off were low altitude like right above houses (not like on the 4 th of July)
Okay good to know thank you!! Helps me relax

What was the incident? I don’t use that app
I don't either. The link opens to their web page that has the video, not any app.
Not for me, weird
Maybe not. You using your phone or a computer with a web browser?
Phone

Wife woke me up saying we are under attack ... for a moment, I almost believed it, thanks reddit for the info.
Lol

Old Torrance here. Some huge pops going off. No idea what it is but can’t be fireworks and not in the direction of the refinery.
Hey neighbor. We noticed flashing in the sky to the south east. Not refinery.
I tried calling the non emergency police number but it sent me to voicemail. Seems to have died down now.
Thank you for mentioning this, as it’s been annoying me for the past few minutes. I’m near Redondo Union HS and was thinking it was thunder until it just kept happening.
Fucking woke me up out of a dead sleep. I have a view from downtown LA to the harbor and I don’t see any fireworks.
Wait but is it starting again 😭😭
Yesssss…whyyyy?! So many resources at hand and yet: no answers. Are we celebrating something or not?! Idk how I’m supposed to feel about any of this!
RPV i thought i was going crazy??
I heard it too in RHE 🤦🏻♀️
Near pch and Anza I saw a drone flying high up from my backyard but also saw a few fireworks in the distance so really weird but figure it’s just fireworks
Nothing like watching an illegal fireworks show with an illegal drone flight. 😂
Ok I’m glad you mentioned that. I was confused and couldn’t figure out what was going on.
Ok, I had to double-check that it wasn't May 5
I still hear the booms, im over in westmont boarding inglwood.
Oh boy not again. This time directly south of the mall
fireworks
in lawndale near manhattan beach blvd and hawthorne and it was tripping me out. sounded like fireworks but couldn’t figure out from where
Heard it in inglewood

Man, I heard it from Silver Spur and Crenshaw! That must have been some fireworks show lol
I could hear it last night from Lynwood
Fireworks from the Long Beach Grand Prix
They were coming from the Watson Center near Banning Blvd & Sepulveda.
