Freeze Tonight, March 15th

The lows in the morning will be around freezing and warming up to around 40 degrees by 10 am. The highs will hit the low 50's by 2 pm with hardly any wind like we had today. We start to warm up on Friday and back in the 80's early next week.

This week at Sunset: 7-17-2017 Sunrise @ Sunset CC This week at Sunset we’ve started off with continuing showers brought on by the heavy damp air. The temperatures have cooled off as a result, but expect it to warm up as we get closer to the weekend. For the month of July we haven’t received nearly the amount of rain we received last month. We’ve received 2.25” so far and last month at this time we were close to 6” of rain. Hopefully, we can finish out July somewhere between 4-5” of rain for the month. This week  we are addressing the over abundance of goosegrass/crowfootgrass and crabgrass around the golf course. These weeds have really blown up in the past few weeks from all the rain and favorable growing conditions. Because we didn’t really have a true winter this year this has equaled to a larger breakout of these summer annual weeds. I will reevaluate with our chemical reps on a suitable/preferred pre-emergent for goosegrass, crabgra...

This week at Sunset: 5-22-2017   As with most of my blogs, it seems, I kick things off with a brief overview of the weather. This week we are expected to receive 1-3” of rain by Wednesday followed by a cold front with highs topping out in the high 70’s in the latter part of the week. We will certainly take the rain and hopefully it’s more of a soaker and not a downpour like the last storm. NWS Tallahassee Forecast 5/22 This week is another busy one for the maintenance crew. We will be focused on cleaning up the golf course in the pinestraw beds as well as weedeating areas that are overgrown. As usual, we’ll continue to stay on mowing rough and the shortcut areas. With the warmer temperatures and rain that we’ve had equals to more growth from summer grasses and weeds. There have been some signs of goosegrass in a few of the fairways. I will be spot-spraying those areas with a chemical that will kill the goosegrass without thinning out the Bermuda. I did...

This Week at Sunset: 6-26-2017 #4 Green at sunset. It looks like we will finish June out with some drier weather this week. However, rain chances return Thursday evening with some scattered thunderstorms through the weekend and early next week. Last week, the golf course received just over 4 inches of rain including the ½ inch we received yesterday. The rain is always welcomed this time of year, but not that much in a short amount of time. Ideally, it’d be nice to have about a ½ inch every Monday and then around a ¼ inch every Friday. As I’ve mentioned in prior posts, the rain has created an abundance of growth throughout the golf course. It is a double-edged sword as it certainly brings more bermuda growth, but it also brings on the onslaught of unwanted grasses and weeds. In particular, the bahia grass has certainly shown its muscles and has really taken off. Also, the goosegrass(crowfoot) has really benefited from all the rain. We will have our deck mower out all...
