What kind of grass do you have? What is your watering schedule?

Can you post a picture of the affected areas from a few inches away where the grass blades are clearly visible.

its a mixture of fescue and perenial rye grass grass was already established when we got the house. I water at 5am twice a week if no rain once a week when it rains

Mine started out like that with turf type tall fescue. Dollar spot that led to brown patch. Now my lawn almost destroyed until fall. I bought honor guard (propaconozol) and applied it today.. It's suppose to get rid of it.

Dollar spot doesn't really happen on lawns, that thread the other day was BS. The golf course mowers would have to be throwing clippings into your yard, it doesn't spread easily. I'm not saying your problem isn't fungal, but the odds of dollar spot on a home lawn are slim to none outside of Florida. It requires dry sand base & a wet canopy, so...golf course or Florida

We seem to have a lot of these questions from New Jersey this week. Is
there some unusual weather up there this year? Extra rain, excessive
heat, etc?

We've had some unseasonably hot spells well into the upper 80's in recent weeks, separated by unseasonably cool periods. In north Jersey we've had only one significant rain in recent memory.
