Kenny B Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Our course waters all night long. Early in the morning the grass is wet, and when the sun is overhead, it sucks the moisture out of the ground. Today's high was 103* and our humidity is typically 25%, but when we played at 9:30 it was only 84*; the humidity had to be around 70%. Felt like when I was living in D.C. in the summer. It was 102* when we finished. Quote “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny B Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Weather for the next 10 days... sunny and hot! Temperatures ranging from 102 to 110. Yes, summer is here. About normal for us, but not for Seattle and Portland.

Once we got to the fourth hole it was pouring down so we hauled arse to the parking lot, loaded our gear up and headed home.
