Remember, most of the good fireworks are illegal in Florida

                While you may be sorely tempted to shoot fireworks over the 4^th of July holiday, we do need to let you know that the good fireworks are actually illegal in Florida.

Illegal fireworks include shells and mortars, multiple tube devices, Roman candles, rockets and firecrackers. 

Basically any firework that flies is illegal in the sunshine state though the state does allow various types of sparklers.

Using fireworks is a first-degree misdemeanor punishable by up to one year in jail and a $1,000 fine. 

There will be at least four professional fireworks shows this 4^th of July holiday.

Sunday evening there will be fireworks at Riverfront Park in Apalachicola.

On Monday night there will be fireworks shows in Carrabelle, Sopchoppy, and on St. George Island at the public beach.

All of the shows will start just after dark.
