Had a little look at the ledge with the spycam and I can't see any water on the ledge even though the light is flat so even with 20.3mm of rain falling, it doesn't take long for any water that does accumulate to drain away and I didn't see any water getting near the Princess and the chick/egg. If we have a repeat of today tomorrow, it's good to know ....
Tonight the chance of rain has dropped to 80% with another 10mm possible ...
Tomorrow's got a 90% chance of rain but the forecast is only for another possible 10mm - used to be 20mm so that's an improvement! Chance of rain tomorrow night drops to 70% ...
Saturday apparently has a 0% of rain - yippeeeeeee
And finally, had a look at radar map for southern Manitoba and northern North Dakota and it looks like no rain (maybe just spitting) from now until at least 3am. Time for Princess to dry out thoroughly and for chick to get another meal or two if Mum and Dad aren't worry about him/her getting out from undercover. It is not unusual (in dry years) for the chicks to get a meal around 2200h. If another chick hatches and there is no rain, chances are Ivy will be bringing a late night snack to the ledge ...
