Rainy President's Day

As of 8am this morning we have had 3/4" of Rain. The rain currently has tampered off to a light drizzle. As you can see from the photo above many of the greens have a lot of standing water.

Currently the course is closed until noon. At that time we will reassess that saturated conditions and determine whether or not we will open. Our decision will be based on whether or the not the course can accommodate play with out causing long lasting damage. When the greens are saturated a foot print or indentation can be seen for a long time.

Weather up date.

A quick weather up date. Since my La Nina posting we have had some rain. Over the past 6 days we have received 2.25" of rain with a little amount of hail mixed in for good measure. Yesterday and Today have been good drying out days for the course. Today, once the frost cleared, we were able to get the mowing fleet on the course. We are trying to get everything mowed prior to the next forecasted rain event on Friday.
Now that things have settled back down after the "transition" events of the past few weeks I promise to be more diligent writing entries to keep you up to date about the golf course.
