Well, the outlook when I tapped (1/24) looked like it was going to be perfect weather.  But, as one know living in Spokane, we often times get shafted when it comes to sunny weather in the winter/spring.  We got an inversion which lasted for several days.  With that came fag, and no sun to warm it up, as was predicted.  So the days satyed cold.  For the last 8 days, it has been cold and cloudy. 

Now that the inversion has went away via a different weather system, we are supposed to warm up for at least the next week.  Today is supposed to be in the high 20's, maybe even up to freezing, with plenty of sunshine.  Tomorrow and all next week we are predicted to get 38-40 degree highs, with just barely freezing nights.  Near perfect to get some sap.   The trees are ready to run.  I am ready to cook.  Bring on the sap!!!!
