Observation start time: 08:45:00

Total observation time: 6.25 hours

Official Counter: Nick Bolgiano

Observers: Peggy Wagoner, Ron Rovansek

Weather:
Wind NW, mostly 4-6 mph, but lighter at times, sky mostly cloudy early,
then partial clearing, temp 0-2C.

The flight this day resembled the flight on Nov 22, with wind NW 4-6 mph
and GEs easily getting up high. I suspect this there is a wind rebound up
Bald Eagle Mt with this combination of wind direction and speed.
Interesting.

Raptor Observations:
GE(8 Ad): 924, 927, 945, 952, 954, 957(2), 1048

BE: Ad-4, Imm-2

GEs flew early, many of them relatively high.

Non-raptor Observations:


Predictions:
Snow predicted for tonight until about 1100 Tuesday. Any Tues-Wed watch is
play it by ear. Next sure watch is Thursday, with predicted wind WNW 10-13
mph. There are orange cones blocking parking behind the tractor shed. If
the parking lot is full, temporarily move the cones and park behind and L
of the shed as in the past.

All visitors must were orange to and from the watch site through Dec 13.
