  • No migration last night

    I know… I said I was taking the weekend off… but there’s some really cool migration going on in Florida right now, and I need to get up anyway to post the radar to Badbirdz-Reloaded, our Florida companion site. Come on by and check it out if you’ve got a second. As for the mid-Atlantic, […]

  • South winds quell flood of migrants… for now

    After four nights of heavy migration, the winds over the northeast and mid-Atlantic finally turned southerly again, making for a small last-ditch effort early yesterday evening.

Both local radars show heavy migration over New Jersey last […]

    Last night the northern mid-Atlantic saw winds shift from northwesterly to northeasterly, while the southern part of the region was under easterly flow the entire night. This made for some interesting migration patterns, which ultimately resulted in a NE–>SW trajectory by 5:00am this morning. Here’s the radar from 7:00pm last night until 5:00am today. Frames […]
