Predictions:
Very late Friday and then Saturday, BW were moving through the area, 500 at
Glen Mills School and 300+ at Pennsbury Township Park. Today's weather put
a stop to it and another storm system is scheduled for Tuesday, so tomorrow
could be a very good day with the bottled up birds pushing through to beat
Tuesday's storm.
