How would I find out
a) the honey flow projections in a specific area (I'm in Northern Virginia)
for both spring and fall
b) the amount of honey one should expect to take off of hives per year, or
per specific year.

Is there any group that monitors or keeps data on these two things?


Here's the USDA honey statistics.  Go to page 3 for year 2009.

 I would suggest joining your local club to get info on your area.  Here's
the state organization web site.
