maple flats

Today and tomorrow are our last 2 days of open house Maple Weekend. I have sap, but it will get far too warm today to try to get it to last into tomorrow. I'll need to RO and boil it as fast as I can today, and when it's gone, boil water to finish the weekend. Most likely our next sap will be on Monday, IF the trees have not budded. I will be watching them closely. Going up to 66 F today, 38 tonight and 42 tomorrow. We've had no freeze for 2 nights now and tonight will be the third. Then Sunday night the forecast calls for a freeze.
I think that should be OK and then the extended forecast looks OK for another week to ten days for here, in central NY. Before last Thursday we had an overnight freeze every night way back to March 16 when it did not freeze just the one night.
I think the trees will not bud yet even with 66 F today, but I've been wrong before.
