PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. (AP) — North American Aerospace Defense Command fighter jets are preparing their security precautions for the Super Bowl.

NORAD said Monday the fighters plan a one-hour drill over New Orleans on Tuesday starting at 7 a.m. local time.

If the weather is bad, the exercise will take place Wednesday.
