Frozen Tundra

I haven't dug through the Fawn Lake record books yet, but I think a few may be getting updated soon.  I can't remember it being this cold for this long.  Single digit temperatures with high winds and no humidity can be a bad combo for grass.  We were in a very dry spell before this cold snap so the turf was already dehydrated.  The course would benefit from a nice blanket of snow, but unfortunately what we've had is not enough to do it much good.  About an inch fell last Saturday before sunrise and covered all the short grass.  It was gone in a couple of days and then last night's snow fell.  The wind has moved it around to where some places are snow free and some are a foot deep.  With another few days of frigid weather ahead it may be awhile before the course is playable.
