I'm north of you Rick, in Clinton County, New York. I probably have a
hundred pound average there. We missed out on much of your rain in June and
July...in fact, it was dry for the month of July. Early flows from
honeysuckle and sumac were pretty good, with some colonies storing two
mediums. At the end of June, I got the rest of my supers on...just in case
the Basswood did something. Looks like there was at least a medium there.
Right now there is a good flow on...between the showers. We've just had two
weeks of hot, humid, showery weather. If it keeps up, they should fill the
brood nests nicely.
