Hello and welcome in.

This is the Wednesday live chat for this week's 3M open.

Your questions, your concerns, your comments.

We will use my website.

We'll use weather websites. We'll use weather websites.

We'll use whatever we can to see if we can figure out what in the world is going to happen this week in Blaine, Minnesota.

So get them comments in right now, get them flowing in.

I see there's already a bunch in there.

We'll go through them and and see

where we can rock and roll looking forward to this this will be fun uh why wait any longer

let's start where we always start let's look at the weather forecast which as of right now

oh boy flash flood warning flash flood. Heavy thunderstorms right now. Wednesday.

An inch and a half of rain forecasted over the next couple of hours. That is quite a bit.

The rest of the week, Thursday, Friday, Saturday looks pretty good. Sunday might bring some more rain.

If we look at the wind, doesn't get more than eight miles an hour at any point for the first

couple of days. So wind wise, temperature wise, all that fun stuff, pretty clean. But oh boy, look at those thunderstorms that are going on right now.

An inch and a half of rain.

If I'm a prognosticator and I look into my crystal ball and I think, oh, man, what is the PGA tour going to do?

Feels like preferred lies, doesn't it?

It feels like an inch and a half of rain brings the potential for a lot of mud balls, mudballs,

and the PGA tour does not like that.

And if they do it on Thursday, I guess they don't have to do it on Friday,
