There has been a lot of snow in the Northeast this winter, and we may see more before it's over. This will tighten the window for finishing projects and getting courses ready for spring 👇

The Multicolored Mosaic of Early Spring Greens

Cool-season greens often have a mottled look in early spring. Although eye-catching, it’s usually just a seasonal sign of slight genetic differences among the plants.

Snow has been melting on golf courses in the central U.S., but winter is not over yet and expectations for playability during early season rounds need to be tempered 👇

Damaging a green out of anger, or for any other reason, shows a serious lack of respect for all the work that goes into preparing that surface and it creates problems for the staff and other golfers 👇

The same plot in early July. I know some pathologists would be very excited to see this. 😂 all plots received no fungicide this year. Differences from plots were from cultivar * fungicides applied in 2022 between late Sep. and early Nov.

10 days ago, there were only 8 spots on this Independence non-treated check plot. I complained that dollar spot developed so slow this year and I really needed to pay close attention and to find them. now, there are more than 250 of them, in 10 days. Yeah!😂😂😂

And that does it! The dry streak has ended at the four climate sites that had not seen measurable rain for 21 days.
The 21 day dry streak (May 21st to June 10th) ended today as of 5 PM at Pitt International (.02 inch), Zanesville (0.76 inch), New Philadelphia (0.32 inch), and Wheeling (0.04 inch) . This streak was the longest at Pitt since October 1997, at Zanesville since March 1999, at New Philadelphia since August to September 1995, and at Wheeling since September 2019.

The observed dry stretch of 21 days will likely end tomorrow for the burgh. This would go down as the 9th longest string of days without measurable precipitation in Pittsburgh history. Here's what we expect for rain totals across the area tomorrow afternoon through Monday:
Forecast rainfall map for the area. Generally, 0.5 to 1 inch or rain are expect southeast of the Pittsburgh metro, and 1 to 1.5 inches are expected northwest through Monday.
