Hey all-

As a new Washington birder, I'm curious about this Pineapple Express
I've been reading about and walking around in lately. Are there any
particular rarities that are to be expected with weather/wind such as
this? Tropical Kingbirds, perhaps - any others? I know in the east
that particular fall combinations of winds have been determined to be
good conditions in which to find vagrant Cave Swallow. Anything such
as this here in Washington or Oregon? Particular seabirds maybe?
Thanks!
