Hi, all. Thanks for the report. What fascinates me, from my Interior West perspective, is the phrase "first migration of the season possible tonight." Basically, we're done, finished, outta here, night-flight-wise, here in central Colorado. We had our biggest flights of the "fall" season a month ago. We were having heavier flights in mid-July than we are now. (ZERO flight calls the past week.) That said, we do get occasional light-to-moderate Sept. and Oct. and even early Nov. night flights in central Colorado. And rarely, they're heavy, as in the early morning of Sept. 29, 2008 (Bryan G., what was going on, winds-aloft-wise, that night??). But, basically, we're into the winter doldrums already! All best, Ted Floyd Lafayette, Boulder County, Colorado ________________________________
