It probably got burnt by some frost, as the weather is good for the next few days you can go ahead and give it a light cut, take no more than 1/3 off. We have being cuting grass up to last week and about two seasons ago we were cutting up to Dec with no adverse problems. |

Yellow tops on grass usually means it has been damaged slightly by frost. However, it should be fine to cut. Just don't cut it too short, never any more than 1/3 grass blades. |

This usually does tend to mean your grass has turned yellow as a result of frost. As said above, just make sure you don't cut it down too short if you do decide to cut it. |
