I am picking up over 200 packages next week and returning to a 10 day weather forecast that starts with 50°F and rain, followed by a full week of days of low 40° and nights below freezing. Advice?

Besides moving south?   Just kidding!  Same forcast here in IL.  Need to make 300 splits this week, and no chance to mate queens in the near future!

Best advice is a slow install with plenty of feed, and as small a box as possible!
