Hot, Hot, Hot

Yesterday was the hottest day of the year. In this picture, we used an infrared laser to measure the temperature of the 3rd green. It was 107 degrees! The only green that was hotter was the 18th. It was 109 degrees! The extreme hot weather will continue from today into at least Saturday night. As I have written before in this blog, we do not roll greens in high heat. We are trying to "nurse" the turf through the heat. We will start to roll greens again once the temperatures drop next week (if they do drop).
