Residents in Marion and Lake counties may hear the sounds of live explosions Monday afternoon, according to WKMG-TV in Orlando.

The U.S. Navy has announced live ordinance training this week at the Pinecastle bombing range in the Ocala National Forest.

Jets from Jacksonville, Fla., will drop bombs between 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. each afternoon, according to the report.

The Navy drops 20,000 bombs a year at Pinecastle -- which covers 6,000 acres of the forest.

The Navy has set up a noise complaint line: (800) 874-5059.
