    It seems almost all chemical labels say not to spray during an inversion. I understand what it is and I understand how to identify when there is an inversion but it would be a lot easier if I didn't have to do that. I'm wondering if there is a resource out there that identifies areas of temperature inversion on a map so I could just go to a website and see for certain whether there is an inversion or not. I tried googling it but could only find such a resource for the state of Oklahoma. If there is such a thing for the state of NY and anyone knows where to find it please let me know.

    We subscribe to DTN for our weather (mainly lightning) and in the Turf Edition there is a spray outlook tab that covers wind, precipitation and inversion risk.
    Inversion is more common in the evening than the morning when golf courses typically spray.
    There is app called Pocket Spray Smart that provides spray conditions for your location.

    The app is perfect. Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks David!

    Where is this Spray Outlook tab?

    We have been subscribing to the DTN weather service (turf edition) for years but I have never seen that tab.

    Thanks,
    Alden

    On our Weather Sentry Online Turf Edition it is on the home screen, under the local forecast tab. On the left side it goes Briefing, Dashboard, Weather, Local Forecast and then Spray Outlook followed by National Graphics etc. Maybe you have to turn it on under settings, ours was just there.
