This past week's weather was great if you're a duck, but not so much for the rest of us. Between Wednesday and Thursday, 63,000 gallons of water fell from the sky on each acre of the golf course. Whether you were looking to play golf, or prepare the course for Opening Day and GAP matches, it just wasn't happening.
Through April 7, we already received 2.30" inches of rain this month. In comparison, April, 2021 was incredibly dry, with only 1.80" for the entire month.
What lies ahead for the rest of this year? That is a great question. Again, in looking at 2021, despite the rollercoaster ride of above and below average precipitation from month to month, at the end of the year we hit the annual average total exactly.

These peaks and valleys can make executing our plans for course care challenging. However, it's also one of the reasons why the vocation of greenkeeping is rarely boring.
