(No count conducted today)
Weather:
Snow throughout the day kept any counting from being conducted today. A total of 3.5" accumulated before slowly melting from below.
Raptor Observations:
Non-raptor Observations:
Predictions:
Westerly winds follow the departing low pressure system, and abundant sunshine is forecasted. If the winds stay on the lighter end of the predicted 10-15, it could make for a very good day. Regardless, we would expect a decent flight considering the date and the missed day of migration today.
