Yes, there are the typical wet months, like March-April and later September through November, but dry spell might be a surprise for the golfers. Basically if you don't mind tee shot plugging the fairway or the scorching 90 F temperature ( although humidity seldom over 80% ), we golf year round. At least that I used to golf year round. Rather stay dry and warm these days.
Weather pattern is changing globally. This year every thing should be close to one month later than normal, according to the 10,000 year Chinese Farmers almanac, because of lengthened lunar June last year.
