I am wondering about all our Manitoba chicks, how they all managed this horrid weather over the last few days?  Do we know anything for sure beyond what we can see on the Radisson cam?

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

Great to hear that all the chicks at this nest site are okay.

Great news that at least 3 chicks, and probably all 4, made it through the terrible rains. 

Bit confused Sparkster.  Did you hear something about the chicks at this site?

Sorry, Moonstar.  I wrote quickly on my lunch break, not thinking that I could/should have done a copy & paste from the webcam page, or at least referred to TPC's report. I still have much to learn about posting. 

thats okay Sparkster.  I realized this once I got home.  I never check the CBC page at work because I can't see the video and I don't think of TPC's reports there.

From Tracy's twitter feed:

Logan - finally managed to get a peak & though could only see 3 chicks, we think 4th just tucked into corner behind nestmates! #mbfalcons

Nuts   , thanks Birdnut for transferring this over ... I was having problems accessing the forum and then had to head back to work before I could get on and forgot later ...

I tried to find an app that would let my tweets scroll here as well but can't do it with this particular version of the forum software ... I think with the next version there might be one ...

Sure do hope this little chick family is okay. I guess we'll hear something if it ever stops raining.

Yes, don't want to disturb them with a chick check when it is raining - but the older the better!!!

Any news of these chicks yet, TPC, since the heavy downpour on the weekend? Hope no news is good news.

Not yet, just a case of timing that sucks.  Hope to try and get out tomorrow if/when not raining ....

[irenekl]

I sure am wondering too.  Really hoping once Tracy gets over there the news isn't disappointing.  (I hope its not "horrible" actually, just don't want to be a drama queen
