Heat stress on lawns

Hot weather can cause lawns to short circuit
Avoid mowing when during the heat of the day
Don't mow less than three inches
Don't mow more than one third of the blades at any one time ( for a three mowing height this means you should mow when the lawn reaches 4 1-2 inches height)
