Peegee Hydrangea Brown-black Leaf Tips!

x-p from Hydrangea forum.
My otherwise-healthy PeeGee, planted this spring, is developing brown leaf tips.
Sprinkler waters at 5 from below, water doesn't hit the top of the plant, it's well-mulched and watered 3X per week plus extra on days we near 100.
The tips look a bit redder in the photo than IRL.
Unfortunately there is no way to keep it dry this week. Hot, humid and daily rain for the next week or more.
Thoughts? Is it a fungus or other pest? A result of a hot, droughty summer with sudden downbursts? Nutritional? Help!
