SOUTHWEST RIVERSIDE COUNTY, CA It was particularly noisy across Temecula and the rest of Southwest Riverside County Wednesday, and the loud sounds are continuing Thursday. What seems like thunder or explosions has had some citizens a bit concerned.
In fact, the noise is coming from Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, as troops train with high explosive munitions.
Most Southwest Riverside County residents are accustomed to the booms that can last all day and night, but for people new to the area . not so much.
