I looked at AccuWeather, NOAA Weather Service and USA Weather Service on the Top Breeders Challenge page. All were different.
So, the best weather report today was "Look out the Window Weather Service" (WWS)
Mike let the birds out in Colfax at 0815. SUNNY AND CALM 59 degrees.
I will make my way to the Loft at around 0945 and wait for the birds. I will use WWS Weather service and fill in report for Arrival Weather in Petaluma.
Good Luck to All !

So much for live clocking. Well pump guy came today and turned off power. So so sorry.
Anyway, birds are all back for the most part. The 10 birds that showed up on the clock were loaded after power came on.
Next toss already loaded for Wednesday. Toss #20 will be Friday. I will be back on Thurday.
Stay tuned folks it can only get better.
Thanks,
Mike G.
PG&E knows how to time things just right. Don't they know we are Training Pigeons !!!
Birds all came together. Looks like they are all there. A few stayed out like always. Alittle rest and relaxation this weekend and back on the ROAD Monday morning. I will post next toss right now.
ALOHA from Maui.
Birds clocked at 194 and then stopped. PG&E is conducting power outages in the area and surrounding hills. Looks like they conducted one at Top Breeder Challenge loft today.
