“The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) will conduct routine live-fly exercises over the National Capital Region between June 30 and July 2 from midnight to 5:30 a.m. Expect low flying aircraft, loud noises. All NORAD exercises are carefully planned and closely controlled.”

ICYMI: Unrelated and for the 250 anniversary festivities there will be a Boatload of Military Flyovers coming between June 24-July 10.
