At 5 p.m. on September 18, don’t be alarmed if you hear a long, low blast of sound resembling a French horn blaring across the D.C. region.
It’s the sound of potentially hundreds of shofars — a ram’s horn used as a musical instrument in Jewish religious practices — simultaneously being blown to usher in the Jewish New Year.
“The Blast” is a coordinated effort from 30 synagogues and Jewish organizations across the D.C. region on the eve of Rosh Hashanah encouraging people to go outside and sound their shofar safely all at the same time.

I hope somebody records this.
