Still too warm with temps to 28C. TUV=4 (300-400fpm) (Good) Observations: Not even a Kestrel or Sharpie today...just some local TV's looking for a bite to eat. Predictions: Well....it finally looks like we're going to see the cold front pass through tonight which should turn the winds around to the N or NE for the next few days. It will be interesting to see what effect the remnants of Hurricane Frances has on the weather in the Great Lakes region over the next couple of days as well. If the rain holds off the next few days could see some decent flights at Hawk Cliff. However, for Tuesday the TUV is forecast as a 2 or 3(Poor). ======================================================================== Report submitted by Dave Brown ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Hawk Cliff Hawkwatch information may be found at: http://www.ezlink.on.ca/~thebrowns/HawkCliff/index.htm
