For the local regular, April marks the last comfortable window before the heat climbs toward May's 94°F average high.

The 28°F daily swing also means morning rounds play noticeably cooler than afternoon ones — a detail visitors often underestimate on their first trip out.
With peak winds averaging 13.4 mph — the fourth-windiest month of the year — morning tee times before 9 AM tend to catch calmer air before afternoon gusts develop. Book those early slots two to three weeks out in April; traveling golfers targeting this window fill them quickly during peak season. See how conditions rate hour by hour on our playability scale.
