    see that on the weather channel they said t was gonna be 30 or 31 last night and it hit 21 at my housewhen I got up this morning at 4:30am. it was 27 at 11:00 when I went to bed. but hope for a good run bad maple weather predicted for the rest of the week.

    changed my mind gonna boil that 50 gallons out. went and checked it again and its just cloudy tastes and smells good.

    Kinda sounds like the same boat I'm in. I had a good run the day I tapped, but since then, there ain't been much. I hope things pick up here in Northern WI as well. I got a decent run the first on my 300, but since then there hasn't been much. I hope things get better here to...

    well, it looks like we may have gotten a small reprieve..got 80 gals today. Funny though, some trees ran beautifully, and the tree next to it was dry..go figure. The long term forcast now looks much brighter..weekend should be a loss, but tues-weds look good next week for a jump start..hopefully
