Weather:
Very windy with west winds at 25-35mph. Temps in the low 30s. Started to
snow around noon and continued until I left.

Raptor Observations:
Two Bald Eagles and one Turkey Vulture were the only raptors on the move
today.

Non-raptor Observations:
A flock of about a thousand Snow Geese flew over before the snow started.
Just after the snow blew in a flock of about 20 Snow Buntings flew past.

Predictions:
Partly cloudy with a high of 38F. West winds at 25-35mph with gusts over
40mph. If the winds calm down at all there's a chance for some movement,
however I don't have super high expectations.

The weather early next week looks better for raptors and we should start
seeing more movement.
