SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) — Another series of loud booms may be heard across San Diego County in the coming weeks, according to officials from Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton.
In a noise advisory issued Thursday via X, formerly known as Twitter, Camp Pendleton announced there will be live-fire training with high explosive munitions starting at 6 a.m. on Friday, Nov. 15, 2024. This training may be heard anytime throughout the day or night.
As noted in the Marine Corps base’s Noise Report for November, these live-fire trainings are expected to continue periodically for over a week. The last session this month is scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 23, 2024.
County areas that are more likely to hear or even feel these loud booms include Oceanside and Fallbrook as they are neighbors to Camp Pendleton. Depending on atmospheric conditions, however, the sound of the explosions may be amplified and heard up to 50-miles away.
For noise inquiries, officials at Camp Pendleton have directed the public to visit their website or contact the Range Operations Division Office at 725-0357 between 7:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.
Though this noise advisory has been issued, there is no guarantee that San Diegans will hear the noises created during live-fire training.
