Fireworks dazzle Fourth of July revelers throughout SWFL

CAPE CORAL, Fla. — Fireworks lit up the sky during Fourth of July celebrations across Southwest Florida on Monday, in spite of occasional interruption and delays because of scattered storms.

The largest event, Cape Coral’s Red, White and Boom, was expected to draw about 30,000 people, but many went to events elsewhere in the area, from Punta Gorda to Naples and points in between.
