A major cool front is sweeping through the Great Lakes region and should be through the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic this weekend--with cooler daytime temps, much cooler nights, and lower humidities. Plus NW winds! So Saturday and Sunday have the potential of having a good early-season push of landbird migrants, perhaps including some of the early-season specialties such as empidonax flycatchers and maybe such goodies as Cerulean, Blue-winged, Golden-winged warblers, etc. Any good migrants trap might work, but particularly Cape May, of course! In contrast, the front might clear out many accumulated shorebirds and some other summering waterbirds.
