Dear BEE-L'rs,
 
        I have a problem.  I live in Northeastern Ohio, near Cleve-
land, and the tenmperature tonight and tomorrow is supposed to be
in the 40-50 degree range with occasiobnal rain, possibly snow,
but no accumulation.  I'm supposed to get a package of bees from
a member of our county beekeeper's association who is bringing them
up from tyhe south.  I'm picking them up tomorrow.  Is is possible to
hive a package of bees in this weather??  The queen is going to be
a Taber (sp?) queen.  If I can't hive them immediately, how long will
they stay alive in the 3# package??
 
        Thanks for the help!!
