Fireworks Noise Levels in dB Over Distance

Thank you. I'm on the 8th floor in an appartment complex, i have my windows closed and not planning to go outside! Happy new year everyone!

 

Thank you for posting this. With the New Year upon us, this will be helpful.

 

No problem. I'm glad it's helpful. Happy New Year 2018 everyone! Keep safe.

 

Update:

Since our neighbours or a nearby boarding house keep setting off explosives/fireworks almost every weekend now, I found this little calculator helpful: http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/Acoustic/isprob2.html

If you're unsure about distances you can look up an online version of your land register and measure distances there.
