COLORADO SPRINGS — If you live on the south west side of Colorado Springs, you may see some light smoke in the area Friday.

It's because the Cheyenne Mountain Space Force Station is conducting a live fire training exercise. It will be going on from 9 a.m. to noon.

Officials say don't be alarmed if you do see smoke, and there are safety protocols in place.
