Last night we had a major storm with tornado like winds of 90 - 100 mile per hour winds (National Weather Service confirmed). Our block will lose 4 -6 trees since the storm tore them apart.
The only damage to the bee hives was that the lids were blown off. I am sure there was some rain got in to the hives. I do not know how much damage that caused for the hive, but there was some activity today. Once we have had a could days of nice weather, I might go in to check them out.
What I find amazing is that a 6 foot tall hive did not get blown over by 80 mph winds. It was all the propolis and weight of the honey that held it together.
