10 day forecast doesn't look too exciting for big sap. cold snow for 2 days the decient sap weather for a few days then warm up without freezing temps for a few days. although that could change. most of the time I am colder anyway watched the Temp drop 12 * the other day from RT95 to my house (15 + minutes drive) So I might get freezes and it might be better but 5 days out is a long time when youn your talking a few degrees.

Although with this last few freeze ups my grade is dropping back down. getting back to mid dark now. Hoping to get back to medium for a bit but it doesn't look too promising.

The temp says 35* but everything is still frozen up pretty tight knocked ice drip off the releaser flap only to have it form again. nothings coming in and the laterals are still frozen. Boiled off everything this morning got a good early start... have too much stuff to do for the snow. Last firing was at 7:30 this morning hit good numbers for me 34 gal/hour. It nice when you can hit those few extra gals per hour seems to make a big difference from those sluggish wet wood days!!! they seem to last for ever.
