Gus makes an excellent point that you can sometimes get valuable information on
landing radar that you would not have predicted when making a report the night
before (see Stephane Perrault's report from Hempstead Lake yesterday). But I

I have been reviewing these radar maps for the last few years, almost on a
daily basis during migration seasons. I think there are few points to be
considered during reading these maps: (especially for NYC birders)

The radar reflectivity that we see is proportionally to the amount of water
in a given volume of atmosphere as sensed by the radar. Birds are largely
made up of water and hence they are highly reflective. Hence, when we see
high radar returns from birds it is due to the density of birds in that

I think I might have run into some musings at the Forest Park water hole today,
maybe even some hallucinations. But once again, numbers surely weren’t as high
as the radar reflectivity might have suggested. I would say there were more
birds than there had been, but nothing to write home about

The radar pattern tonight is similar to what it was last night. High
reflectivity and high velocity in a NW direction. Does this mean tomorrow will
be birdy or quiet? I can’t say for sure but I’d like to share some thoughts
about it.
