Snow Capped Ice Layer on Greens


Golf maintenance staff removed snow from the practice putting green and applied potassium sulfate in an effort to accelerate the thawing process. At this point in time (March 11), it does not appear that the greens will suffer any turf loss as temps are predicted to be in the mid to upper 40's for the next 3 days with no significant icing events predictated in the near term. However, this can all change very quickly. It's March in Chicago!
