Freeway connectors, on-ramps, and off-ramps on the I-8 from the I-5 to state Route 163, 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. will be closed Tuesday - Thursday.

3. No, you are not imagining it. Those loud booms can be heard this week throughout northern San Diego County. The U.S. Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton is setting off high explosives. They are conducting 24/7 field artillery exercises. The sound can travel as far as 50 miles away. "When the air is more humid, it is less dense (more buoyant), so sound would travel faster and farther," said Sheena Parveen NBC San Diego meteorologist.
