(No count conducted today)
Weather:
Hmmm...another hurricane hits Florida yesterday so that would mean, yep,
you guessed it, rain, and lots of it as Jeanne moved up the ridge. Rain,
low clouds, fog, not necessarily in that order = NO hawk watching today.
Observations:
Predictions:
Clearing skies and breezy.
