A freezing cold day!

It's now freezing!! The overnight temperature is expected to be -14C (7F).  It's blowing a gale (50 mph gusts), and the wind-chill is an incomprehensible -20C (-4F)!  It's cold enough inside by the fire, let alone being outside in a wooden box!  I hope my girls are OK!!!

This afternoon was cold too and here are a couple of photos!  I'm not planning to clear the entrance to the hives just yet, but I am worried that leaving a screened bottom board in place was the right thing to do? I supose only time will tell on that one!

  1. Are you using insulated covers? I've read a lot of mixed theories about how well they work/don't-work. Just curious if you're using them or not.
