Residents near Hurlburt Field may experience loud noises and vibrations on June 27 as the 823d RED HORSE Squadron conducts explosive demolition operations.

The planned detonations will take place at the Hurlburt Field Range between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m. Base officials warn that demolition charge detonations will occur periodically throughout the day.

Nearby residents might hear loud noises or feel vibrations associated with the explosions. Officials note that high humidity or cloud coverage can make the effects seem louder and closer than on clear days.

The training is part of the squadron’s regular operations at the Air Force installation.
