July 1 Rain Storm Continued
The top picture is the front of the 6th green during the rain storm. 2" of rain in almost an hour was epic and no drains or ditches could keep up. But the bottom picture is of the 6th fairway 2 hours after the rain stopped and not one puddle. What a difference the drains made along with the ditch. My only concern now is the forecast for the next few days of storms with high humidity. Poorly drained areas are sure to suffer if we get more rain and the humidity and night time temps remain high.
Also, every single bunker on the course was washed out during this storm, including the new bunkers that have liners. It will take us a good day or two just to get the bunkers playable, not to mention all the debris that washed out of streams, ponds and ditches has to be cleaned up as well.
