Here it is, from sunset last night through 5:00am.
Frames are every 1/2 hour for reflectivity and velocity, and every hour for the regional composite. Click on the thumbnail to view the full-sized animation.
Another night of light easterly winds over the region made for another moderate flight of migrants. The velocity indicates that while birds started off in a NE–>SW direction, over night the winds seem to have subsided and birds took a more NNW–>SSE approach. This could mean better than expected numbers along the coast, although inland sites probably have the best chance of high densities. No weather in sight to concentrate birds, so hit the prime ridge spots (Garret mtn. or better yet, Chimney Rock) or coastal migrant traps (Cape May and the northern Bayshore).
As for the rest of the week, I’ve posted a forecast on Birdcapemay.org/ so come on over and visit.
Good Birding
