If that is the forecast for Brandon then maybe she will be washed right out of the nest box(I hope not), so far there has been only 2mls of rain and very little wind :).

Not sure when the rain started and the forecast precipitation amounts are the possible "up to" amounts. At the moment Hurricane looks find, maybe a bit damp around her face but she's been soaking wet before and all has been well. Considering her eggs are still a couple of weeks from hatching, the next couple of days of wet will be more irritating for the parents than for the kids-to-be I suspect.

Rose:
Another wet day, a little rain , a little drizzle but should be dry in the nest box, the wind is from the south west and just a gentle breeze. :)
Rose:
Rain and drizzle off and on all afternoon but dry in the nest box. Hurricane has made sure that the scrape is in the very southwest corner of the box, that's the most sheltered part of the box. Brooklyn on the eggs at 1730 hours and Hurricane on one of the lights. :)
