I don't know what it is with fireworks/aerials with us locals. In my opinion, aerials should not be used because they are illegal (even tho I loved them when I was young).
Maybe your neighbors can pop the aerials in the other direction, away from your house?
But don't feel guilty, because you are right, this winter is super dry, and we do not want a brush fire anywhere! It is not so good that we are all on catchment, so it's hard to shoot water on your bushes/yard (especially with 1 acre+). Some of my friends used to do that in Honolulu, to help reduce the chance of a brush fire (in their tiny yards).
Maybe you can bring over some food? Everyone LOVES food. Just a small gesture to show that you're the nice neighbor.
Maybe not the 10,000 firecracker, but maybe a smaller one like a 5,000 if that is affordable? If not, home baked stuff is good too.
