Ha, great observation. For those that don’t know - the fireflies/lightning bugs known to the east coast don’t live on the west coast.
Apparently there are species that live west of the Rocky Mountains, but they are active during the day, and even at night the light they produce is too dim for the human eye to perceive. So the west coast doesn’t get the beautiful light shows that the east enjoys.
