As Hurricane Sandy approaches, the magnitude of this unprecedented storm is becoming apparent. As stated previously, be extremely careful and cautious if you are in, near, or around this storm, as conditions will be extremely dangerous. Safety first! The present track has changed little from this morning’s update, and presumably a central New Jersey landfall is still likely early on Tuesday morning. Another update will follow later this evening. One note – our friend Tom Johnson reports Great Skua and Dovekie from the continental shelf in the past days, so presumably both of those species should be added to the expectation list for birds that could be displaced toward the coast.
