  • Migration over Jersey

    Moderate migration over the Northeast, and heavy migration over the mid-Atlantic. By looking at the velocity image from last night, you can see some evidence of a temperature inversion after sunset, and some west –> east flow across the radar’s view. Soon thereafter, though, the direction shifts from north –> south, as birds entered the […]

  • Nothing moving tonight

    There’s nothing on the radar tonight…except a whole lot of clutter. I won’t be posting the radar in the morning unless things change.

  • Migration over Jerze

    Here’s the radar from sunset last night through sunrise this morning. It’s a bit cluttered due to light southerly winds and an overnight temperature inversion (causing anomalous propagation), but you can still make out some nocturnal migration regardless. See my post from last night for more details. Good Birding

  • Migration in progress

    Light south winds tonight…yet the radar is showing some migration. Much of what is on there is anomalous propagation (probably due to the warm day followed by a clear, cool night), although there is some N –> S movement evident on the velocity image. The migration looks better in South Jersey and points south of […]

  • BIG migration over New Jersey

    Wow! Big migration over New Jersey last night, with moderate migration over the Northeast. This was clearly the biggest push of birds over the Garden State this Fall, but what it will mean for birding conditions is still unclear since fewer birds were moving over the points north of us. Given the local density though, […]
