So with all this mild weather will the bees have enough stores for when the cold weather really gets here?

My bees have been out every day the last 2 weeks and with the weather set to be dry and 13-14 degrees all next week will they be using stores as I can not imagine there's allot around for them now.....

All 4 hives are still heavy but just curious about the above.
 
Mine are still out bringing in pollen and nectar and taking down fondant in the mild spells.

If its warm enough to fly, its warm enough to feed. So if you are worried, break out the feeders and top them up until they reach their ideal weight.
