Everett Thunder On The Bay Fireworks Show A Failure Due To Unresolved Technical Issue

Thousands of people disappointed in Everett, Washington as the City’s “Thunder on the Bay” Fireworks show suffered what was termed an unexpected technical issue that the vendor could not diagnose or resolve, which led to a failed show.

A few fireworks launched just after 10 PM but then stopped. The City’s vendor worked on the issue but was unable to resolve it.

A City of Everett spokesperson sent MyEverettNews.com a message saying they hoped to have more information in the morning.

Here is the text of a Statement Everett City Staff put out on social media at 11:28 PM.
