Strong winds gusting to 80 km/h producing local damage.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
An unseasonably intense storm system centered northeast of the Dauphin area is producing strong westerly to southwest winds over southwest Manitoba and the Red River valley today. Winds gusting to 70 or 80 km/h are being reported with a peak gust to 96 km/h at Brandon Airport earlier this morning. These winds together with full tree foliage and saturated ground are leading to several reports of tree branches down along with local power outages. The winds are expected to stay strong into this evening before they start easing off overnight as the storm system weakens somewhat. Until then residents in the advisory area should be aware of the potential for further local tree damage and power outages today due to these strong winds.
The public is advised to monitor future forecasts and warnings as warnings may be required or extended.
Please monitor the latest forecasts and warnings from Environment Canada at www.weatheroffice.gc.ca
The Peregrine Chick:
1842h - raining here in Winnipeg (yet again) - 22mm in the last 24 hours.
All the chicks in West Winnipeg are wet but are that isn't stopping them from trying to climb up on the inside box ledge to get to Beau who is sitting on the wall edge that surrounds the nestbox. They aren't quite big enough to climb up nor strong enough to hop up, so unless someone gets very lucky, they are stuck in the box for a while long ... they will probably be able to do it by next weekend.

Yay! 2 female and 2 male. Thank you for letting us know.
When my husband and I stopped by Saturday morning we found both Beatrix and Beau.
Kinderchick:
2 males & 2 females... wonderful news! Glad to hear everything went well with the banding. :D
