This wet, rainy, turbulent, southerly, blocking weather is almost over. The machine, the fan, is going to turn on tomorrow. There will be moderate northwest, then west-northwest, winds all weekend. If there are any hawks left in the pipeline to our north, they may be coming through. CT's full-season hawk sites (Lighthouse Park, New Haven; Quaker Ridge, Greenwich) may have some good counts, at least for late November.
These conditions are also ideal for a rarity or two to be captured in the Rarity Round-up, which starts tomorrow. Something could turn up anywhere.
Try to get out to experience this potential "last hurrah" of the exciting 2024 migration season.
