Perhaps someone from that area can attest to how cold you get, but if I guess correctly, your area might need 30-60 lbs of honey to survive the winter. Better to have too much honey for your bees, your first year, than to have not enough and starve your bees.
Since this is your first year, my suggestion is to take as little, if any, honey this year...Next year, you will prolly have enough and then some.
