PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. (AP)- Volunteers at the Peterson Air Force Base continue an annual tradition of monitoring Santa Claus' progress this Christmas Eve.

Dozens of helpers at NORAD are taking calls and tracking Santa's location on large projection screens.

They're posting updates for nearly 1.2 million Facebook fans and 104,000 Twitter followers.

The volunteers started taking calls at 4 a.m. Mountain time and will keep updating until 3 a.m. on Christmas morning.
