A meterologist just posted that a significant part of the eastern eyewall of Hurricane Milton has an aberrant pattern that can be associated with biologic origin and are most likely birds. The birds are usually in a migratory route and essentially shelter in the eyewall, traveling with the hurricane.

Hurricane Milton is still a few hours from making landfall, but over 250,000 customers in Florida have already lost power, according to poweroutage.us.
Power outages are increasing along west coast of Florida, but some of the counties that have the largest percentage of outages are actually in central and eastern areas of the state due to this afternoon’s tornado outbreak within the outer bands of Milton.
With hurricane-force gusts beginning to move onshore, power outages will begin to increase significantly for western Florida this evening.
One utility warned there could be up to 1 million outages in the state.

I woke up from my nap to see it’s wobbled just north of my house.
My friend JK says 70 MPH winds and she is 2 miles east of me.
My neighbors texted that the power is flickering and will likely go out soon.
My Ring cameras went out a couple hours ago. But my plants were hanging in there!! (The internet drowns every time it rains.)
