Default Pine Tar / Pitch

This is a great discussion with many helpful suggestions-- I have found that Purell (alcohol-based hand sanitizer) and an old rag, along with some elbow grease, resolves most issues and without residue (e.g. WD 40, diesel or kerosene).

Here is my question: why this year? What is different to make the trees emit so much more pitch? I am baffled, interested in your views.
