Predictions:
It looks like we may finally be breaking out of the weather pattern we have been under for a good portion of April. Sunny skies, temperatures in the low 50s, and light to moderate northwest winds tomorrow should allow some (hopefully more!) migrants to catch some thermals and be seen from the watch.
