Things are getting serious. The pond that our course uses to irrigate is gettng dangerously low. Temps in KC have been in high 90s all week, with 104 predicted for tomorrow (6/28). This is crazy hot for this time of year, or for that matter, any time of year. We've only had a couple of short thunderstorms in all of June. Doesn't bode well for July or August, which are usually are hotest and driest months.

So far our course is still in pretty good shape, though the greens and tee boxes are starting to show some signs of stress. As the state of Colorado continues to burn, I'm curious how dry it is where you are, and how it has affected your course.

P.S. I know dry weather has an impact far beyond how it is affecting our golf courses - crops for instance - but this is a golf forum.
