Rainfall has its Benefits, But......

While I have spent most of the golf season praying for rain, I do get a little nervous when we get to much at one time.  This can lead standing water on the fairways which is very dangerous to the turf when the temperatures are high.

The standing water can "cook" the turf like boiling an egg.  We do are best to remove the water off the surface but the saturated turf is still in harms way.
