When is it the
Coldest?
This is the time of year in El Paso that I love.
We get a bit chilly in the morning and then rapidly
warm up into the 70’s and 80’s by the afternoon. That
early morning chill we get typically happens when
many of you are likely rolling out of bed – sunrise!
Do you know why our temperatures are typically lowest around sunrise? Dur-
ing the day, energy arriving from the sun exceeds energy that the Earth radiates
back into space, so temperatures usually rise. At night, incoming solar energy
drops off, but the Earth continues to radiate energy, so temperatures typically
fall. Dawn comes after a full night in which the Earth has lost energy and re-
ceived very little.
Often the temperature does fall for a short time after sunrise, though it is only a
degree or two at most. And even if the temperature doesn’t fall as the sun is ris-
ing, the air may actually feel colder to you. That’s because we are used to it
being colder when it’s dark and warmer when it’s light. So, as the sky begins to
brighten in the morning and the temperature remains nearly the same, we might
perceive that it is colder than it actually is. Also, wind generally increases dur-
ing the day. The air sometimes begins to stir just after sunrise, and an increase
in wind would make us feel colder.
If there are no fronts or precipitation nearby, the daily temperature cycle is pri- Weather Trivia:

Bunker play:

is enough
Research shows that a tour player
over the course of a full season will
make only 50 percent of his putts
from 7 feet. You don’t see a lot of
putts going in until you arrive at the 3-
foot range, where the pros make about
99 percent, and not even the pros reli-
ably get the ball within 3 feet of the
hole coming out of the sand.
So even if you’re one of the best
players in the world, on average
you’re going to get up-and-down
from a greenside bunker about 50
percent of the time. Thus for the av-
erage amateur, hitting out of a green-
side bunker is a three-stroke event,
meaning that you can expect to take
three shots: one to get on the green
and two more into the hole. The key
is not to take more than three
strokes.

Be a champ
It looks like something
you’d find in a physics lab,
and you might, if the re-
searchers are golfers.
The Club Champ Swing
Groover lets you exercise
and condition the muscles
you use for playing golf.
The ball automatically re-
sets itself, and you can use
it with any club — irons
and woods — whether
you’re right- or left-handed.
The Club Champ Swing Groover costs $30 and is avail-
able at www.kohls.com.
TROUBLE SHOTS
How to get up
from a downhill lie
The next time you find your ball on a downhill slope near
the green, here’s what to do:
For starters, take the highest-lofted club in your bag. This
is because the slope of the hill automatically delofts the club.
Put most of your weight on your front leg, and let your
shoulders lean down until they’re parallel to the slope.
Take about a half-swing and make sure to keep your fore-
arms from rotating through impact — keep the underside of
your trail forearm pointed at the sky all the way into your
follow-through — thus, valuable loft is preserved.
