I went out this morning at 6:00am and bingo,400 gallons of sap. I have no idea how much sap I lost, but it had obviously had slowed down as my sump was only pumping into the storage once an hour (so 5 gallon/hour). My boil is beating the sap flow (12-13 gph boil).

Hopefully I will finish from syrup today.
Lucky you!! I probably have that much water in pails from the storm last night...
