Day 33First shift change was at 0548h CDT today, Ivy took over from Princess who'd been "on" last night. Didn't last long though, Princess reclaimed her spot at 0604h CDT and doesn't look to be ready to move. Could be the weather forecast (who knew they had access to Enviroment Canada - or maybe it was our Twitter feed
) or it could be chicks getting ready for their debut, or perhaps both. Upside of wind is that light rain gets blown about, upside of rain is that often the wind goes down. The chicks have a decent scrape there so there is more than a few inches of gravel where the eggs are.
Today's forecast for WinnipegDay - Overcast with a 70% chance of rain. High of 22C. Breezy. Winds from the South at 15 to 25 km/h.
Night - Overcast with rain in the evening, then partly cloudy with a 70% chance of rain. Low of 12C. Breezy. Winds from the SSW at 10 to 20 km/h shifting to the WNW after midnight.
South winds not our favourite, winds from any quarter to the west tend (TEND) to be less of an annoyance on the ledge but it will depend on how the downtown buildings funnel the air movement
