I don't know what happened today but all of a sudden things are starting to get crazy. The weather wasn't to warm today but maybe the rain had something to do with it. Had at least 5 buckets almost overflowing and many with more than half or better. Trees that haven't had a drop yet now are flowing really well. How's things flowing everywhere else ?

I had a good run here in bedford. 30+ on 33 reds on a shurflo vacuum pump. It was an odd weather day.

Yes, strangely fast today. A buddy of mine is a logger and said he hadn't seen large trees frozen solid before like he did this year. I guess we needed more than just a couple warm days to get the sap cycle started. Hold on to your hats!

Got 36 gallons yesterday from 41 taps, buckets, here in Merrimack. Looks like we will be boiling tonight! :)

Nice, wish it was flowing that good in londonderry. I'm starting to think my trees are defective. They are so weird how much I'll get one day and the next isn't great. Maybe i tapped to early again this year but, I don't think March 1st is really early so who knows. I hope things pick up even more cause it's still not looking great again this year
