uproars

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'noisy disturbances' is the definition.
'uproars' can be an answer for 'disturbances' (uproar is a kind of disturbance). I'm not sure about the 'noisy' bit.

'raised loud laughs' is the wordplay.
'raised' becomes 'up' (similar in meaning).
'loud laughs' becomes 'roars' (I've seen this in another clue).
'up'+'roars'='UPROARS'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for uproars that I've seen before include "Loud confused noises from many sources" , "Hubbubs, brouhahas" , "rackets" , "Noisy commotions" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
