I'm pleased to report all the greens look to be in good shape. They came through winter nicely considering the extreme weather shifts we had this winter. The greens remain saturated, but all of the standing water has moved off of the surface.
December Recap:
- 8 days above 40°F
- 2 days above 50°F
- 2.7 " of rain
January Recap:
- 6 days above 40°F
- 2 days above 50°F
- .75" of rain
February Recap:
- 6 days above 40°F
- 3 days above 50°F
- 1.6" of rain
March Recap (thru 3/21):
- 7 days above 40°F
- 3 days above 50°F
- 1.7" of rain
It is likely we will still see a couple more freeze/thaw cycles, so we are not quite out of the woods yet. However, the turf looks good at this point.
The greens still remain soft and saturated as the frost is still working its way out of the ground. If you are playing, please play to the temporary flags in front of the greens. Traffic on the greens at this point will be harmful to the health and playability of the greens moving forward.
