What's wrong with my centipede?

I live in Mississippi, have centipede grass. The yard is five years old. I gave it lots of TLC early on, but last couple of years not so much. Like everywhere else, it is pretty dry down here right now, but don't think that is the problem. There are two parts of my yard, that simply haven't grown and the area is getting larger. But the problem has been there several years.

In the past I have tried iron, fertizlizer, aerator, lots of water, but nothing has seemed to help these two areas. the rest of my yard is fine

In addition, there are lots of weeds in these affected areas, and now some type of clover seems to be appearing.

I mow it pretty low, and once a week or once every two weeks.

I have several more pictures, but can't figure out how to post more than one. can email them if necessary
any help is greatly appreciated!!
