The construction on the 9th hole has come to a stop due to the snow and cold temperatures. They were able to rough shape the leftside bunker on the 9th hole as well as complete the drainage in that bunker. All of the sod has been stripped for the fairway expansion. All of the new irrigation has been installed in the fairway expansion, the 9th green complex, and the 1st green complex. The sod for the irrigation trenches was frozen so it could not be placed back before the storm. As the weather breaks they will be back to complete the bunkers and fairway expansion.
The snow has helped insulate the greens from this cold weather. On the 21st the soil temperature was 24 degrees but following the snowfall on the 22nd the soil temperatures have risen to 30 degrees showing how much the snow acts like an insulation blanket.
