6:24 pm south of Tip parking lot, 14°c, strong WNW wind, calm east side of Tip......monarchs flitting about their chosen roost spot & beginning to settle in.
Cooler temp Sun Oct 9th will keep them in roost til 10 am or so when the temp warms to above 10c/50f to warm them enough to burst from their clusters. I expect that they will take advantage of the all day NW wind to get across Lake Erie & journey south. It may also bring in more monarchs.
