Title: Rainy Weather
Post by: frankgessner on April 28, 2009, 10:14:16 AM
Finally got some warm weather in southwest Ohio.  Now it's supposed to rain off and on all week.  My question is: do bees swarm in rainy weather?  The lows will be in the fifties highs in the low seventies.

Thanks

Frank

I would be more concerned about swarming if the weather had them couped up for a week or more solid and then you had a couple of really nice days.  They really seem to like to swarm after that pattern this time of year!
