Send some of that warm air to North Carolina. I'm beginning to wonder if I live in the Deep South or Siberia.

California is getting some rain today. No more whining, OK?!!! :08:

When I lived in NC I was driven out of my house cause of ice storm power failures. Three times in 12 years. Lucky there was a hotel nearby that allowed dogs in the room. I enjoyed Charlotte --- but give me S FL anytime. Miss my Piedmont bbq and eastern NC vinegar bbq too.

[Richard]

It rained off and on this afternoon. I received less than a tenth of an inch. About half the storm stayed off-shore and now its headed inland a little farther south over Tony's place.
:lurk:

[caliboy1994]

We're finally getting some rain too. There is a good chance of rain all weekend. Maybe that high pressure system that has been sitting over the Pacific for the last 13 months and depriving us of precipitation is finally going away.

Yes, I was watching the system come down through California. It looked like most places it dumped a 1/4 inch or more. But as happens many times, it split up coming into the Los Angeles area with about half of it heading eastward and another portion heading south along the coast, breaking up as it came. In my area it was only a foliar feed. Perhaps there will be more between now and April. So far the precipitation in my area since 9/1/2013 is 1.6 inches. :0493:

After the rain: sunshine!

Here's the Dwarf Namwa pup I received from Anke (http://www.bananas.org/member-crazy-banana.html) last fall, sporting a new pair of sword leaves.

We've been having overnight sprinkles of less than 1mm with temperatures in the 50's, followed by warmer days with low humidity and temperatures around 70F. This sort of weather is perfect for a massive breeding of slugs, snails, and nuisance insects. It's time to get out the Sluggo (http://www.cpsagu.com/Regions/West/pdf/Sluggo%20flyer%203.02Scroll.pdf) and Green Light Fruit Tree Spray (http://www.scotts.com/smg/goprod/green-light-fruit-tree-spray/prod10780016/) and knock 'em down!

[bananimal]

Trimmed up my co-agulated banana leaves today and when I got to the SH 3640 a bump on the last cut down pstem to fruit released a swarm of small wasps.

They bite real good - stinging lasts a long time. Rates high on the nuisance scale!!!

[orinoko]

Headline:

Bright or sunny spells and just a few showers.

Today:

An icy start in places. Then a good deal of dry and bright weather, with light winds. There will also be a few showers, some of which could be heavy and are likely to fall as snow over the Pennines. Maximum Temperature 6 °C.

Very frosty when I woke up this morning.

[Richard]

A very large moisture system is moving into the area. It's currently about 50 miles offshore and the party (rainfall) is expected to start about midnight. We could get our entire annual rainfall (7 inches) over the next few days.

Most of our municipal water supply is not local. It comes from both the Colorado River watershed and central CA. The former is doing fine but the latter is currently at about 35%. That's bad news for California's agricultural belt. For us, it means about 70% of "full" levels. We've been getting by on 80% for a number of years now.

[venturabananas]

Got 1.3" inches of rain last night here in Ventura. That was a big bump in this drought year. Hopefully more tonight and tomorrow.

[cincinnana]

You fellas along the west coast are going to get real wet, you got a big one brewing.
We are going to get ours 6 to 12 inches of snow Sunday according to the talking heads, they don't know yet.

[Richard]

It's stormin-normin right now with temperatures in the 50's, barometer at 29.8, and wind gusts in the 20-30 mph range. So far we've had 2/3 inch rain.
:woohoonaner:

[venturabananas]

We've had 3.6" of rain in Ventura in the past two days, after 0.8" for the entire rainy season up to that point. Boy did we need it!

On the bright side, next time you see 20-30 mph gusts in the forecast you'll prop your naners for sure!

It was laying on my garage roof, so kind of propped...I usually prop as soon as I see the first hand of bananas, but they were just not there yet. Has anybody ever transplanted a banana plant that had been blown over? It blocks my front door right now and has to go somewhere, but the question is if "somewhere" is the compost pile or to give it a try to replant at a different spot.

[cincinnana]

First round, a nice icy impenetrable glaze.
Second round, 7 inches of fluffy white stuff.

Can you tilt it up and back into place so you don't have to disturb the roots as much as you would if you transplanted it? Whatever the case, it's worth a shot to keep it going -- Namwah are tough plants.

Thanks. Have tried it this afternoon and used PVC pipe on the p-stem the way I usually prop my bunches ( with a 45 degree elbow). If it works I will just have to support the bunch with even more PVC pipe, but I refuse to give up. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

Did the roots snap off? If not, right the pstem and dump a bag of Black Kow on the mat.

Thanks. Some roots did, but I can certainly top up with cow manure or a wheel barrow of my chickens crap. Normally I would be hesitant to do that because of the higher N component which will not do anything to the plant anymore because it will not grow any more new leaves, but I have nothing to loose and if nothing else, it might help to get new pups (with a teaspoon of Azomite ;) )

We have hot "Santa Ana" winds coming from the east at 5 mph gusting to 20 mph. I might need to turn on the air conditioner this afternoon.

[venturabananas]

Yup, 87 degrees, dry and windy today and yesterday. Even after all that rain last week, had to water the stuff in pots today.

[Richard]

Me too - watered all the plants today. Sitting out on the patio at 10:30pm, it's in the high 60's.

It's 10pm and 70F. Quite a scary proposition for the summer at latitude 33.2.

[bananimal]

Yesterday it hit 84 with 40% RH. Beautiful day. So I dug a trench for a new irrigation line after I found that the pool planting bed was fitted with outside yard access. Will tap off a riser in the palm bed. Then the jet pump died. It never ends.

83 degrees, 9% humidity, and 25 mph winds with 50 mph gusts. Not good banana weather! Makes me think seriously about getting rid of all the tall varieties, which are taking a serious beating, with shredded, stripped, and snapped leaves.

[crazy banana]

I could cry:
Last month gusty winds broke one of my banana plants in fruit (the verdict on this one is still out), but today's gusty winds snapped my beautiful Blenheim Apricot tree which was loaded with fruits.Sad day!

Sorry to hear that. :( It's a hard way to learn that plants have limits and thinning out fruits can be a good strategy. Darn! I hate loosing a crop. Have done that many times in the past.

[Richard]

Those of us in southern California are reeling with "Santa Ana" conditions. The wind has been blowing steady off the inland desert states (Nevada, Arizona) for a day and a half now. Humidity has been below 15% for the duration. At midnight today it was 70F, rose quickly to 90F with sunlight and peaked at 95F. Now after sunset it is back to 75F at 10pm with humidity around 10%. Those dry winds ... tomorrow will be a full watering day.

Thanks. In the future I just have to do it.
Would it be advisable to plant a new tree now or should I wait until fall?

[Richard]

If it broke off well above the graft then there is no reason to plant a new tree.

Also, in your location most perennials can be safely planted 10 months out of the year.

[crazy banana]

Still gusty winds today.
103 F at 2:30PM. It has never been that hot at our place in 12 years.
Not that I am complaining, but seriously considering to jump into the Jacuzzi which is only 102 F to chill of a little bit ;)

[Richard]

It cooled off here earlier this afternoon compared to yesterday. Still a bit too hot for trenching.

[venturabananas]

Better today than yesterday here. Same temperature more or less, but not as windy. The wind with essentially no humidity is what really crisps up the plants!

Yesterday:
Sustained winds: 25-32 mph, gusts 35-49 mph
Temp: 93 max.
Humidity: 4% min.

Today:
Sustained winds: 10-23 mph, gusts 20-35 mph
Temp: 95 max.
Humidity: 5% min.

[Richard]

The weather forecast for today included a 10% chance of rain. It was cool most of the day, but no rain until I was relaxing on the back patio about an hour before sundown ... and then the skies opened up with about 1/8th inch soaker in about 5 minutes! I came inside and got this perspective from the Weather Underground (http://www.wunderground.com/wundermap):

This morning the humidity was in the low teens and now it is a ridiculous 4%.
:0491:

[venturabananas]

Well, Ventura is "only" down to 7% humidity, combined with 20-30 mph winds and 97 degree heat. You can practically see the plants drying out before your eyes. Bizarre weather.

[Richard]

It's 1pm, 102F outside and single digit humidity. There are 3 brush fires burning in open land within a 10 mile radius of my home. Thankfully, no danger for me but folks in Carlsbad have some serious concern.

We're expected to have 2-3 inches today. Flash flood warnings in our area.

The nice part down here in San Diego is the precipitation is spread out over 24 or so hours and sinking in most places. There are areas of past fires etc. that have flash flood danger and it is always a cautionary time out in the desert. But overall, I'm looking forward to it.

Can't find a record?

When weather observation stations are moved, they typically take on a new name and new identification. This is necessary for ensuring the accuracy and validity of historical records. However, it also can make it difficult to find records for your location, since each city could have multiple stations with different periods of record, in different locations. Record Extremes contains all historical records from the National Climatic Data Center, and are shown on a "station ID" basis. A missing record means that in that station's lifetime, it didn't have the opportunity to record the location's record extreme.

Official daily temps for the month of March was 76.2F high and 49F low. Decent Banana growth:) It was nice to have green bananas through the winter this year. Can't complain about being Zone 10 for a change

[Richard]

Patchy fog before 11am and after 11pm.. Otherwise, cloudy through mid morning, then gradual clearing, with a high near 77.

June gloom :) today was 101.. Nights have been hot. Everything is growing like crazy lately .. Some ocean influence tonight which feels incredible compared to what we have been having

[Jamie p]

Today reminds me of a day during the rainy season in Costa Rica !! The bananas should grow at least foot taller today!

[Jamie p]

Rain, Rain, Rain oh and did I mention it is raining.

[bananimal]

Hot hot hot!!! High of 92F every day since I got back from Istanbul and Mykonos. Very little rain. The watering system kept everything alive including the lawn.

And the critters got some of my Pickering, Sweet Tart and Cogshall mangos. They will be dealt with soon!

And unlike Nick I had a contractor mow the lawn while I was gone. Bunch of dead grass but not a problem.

[Snarkie]

Mid 90's and sunny for at least the next ten days. Need the Catawbas to do a rain dance or something...

I spent 12 years in the Charlotte university area and remember well the hot days. Hot but dry. Had to put a shade net over the garden to keep the tomato plants from getting roasted.

[Snarkie]

That makes us neighbors. I'm in Derita.

Another day of storm warnings and rain. Couple of tornados thrown in for good measure! 86%

[blownz281]

For several weeks finally a normal summer upper 90's-100's. Video recorded a funnel cloud move around our neighborhood close by our house! We prayed and it went away.

[Kat2]

Hotter than Hades here and no relief in sight. Oh wait, everyday there are lots of huge TSs predicted but that's a lie. Humid but no rain.

What's even funnier is that radar--current radar--doesn't show rain that's actually happening. Yet sometimes it can be raining here and current radar shows the skies clear. Very odd to me. I thought DC predictions were flaky; Central FL ones have those beat hands down.

[Jamie p]

If it doesn't stop raining I'm going to have to move all of my bananas back in for the first time in summer ever!!!!! 5 inches just this week!!

[xeriscape8321]

Another hot, sunny , dry day......we should have entered our rainy season by now.... But no, and, no end in sight with any rain relief. Currently 91F degrees with 50% humidity.... That makes it feel like 97F degrees....just around noon.

[Jamie p]

I wish we could send some of our rain to the people on here who need it!! It's rained for weeks now!! NOn STOP!!

We could use some rain. Send it over.:bananas_b

[Snarkie]

We could use some rain. Send it over.:bananas_bWe're finally starting to get a little here, after many, many weeks without any at all, but we really need a soft, soaking rain for about two or three weeks. The clay is bone dry.

[Richard]

Currently raining, 1/4 inch so far and more to come later today and tomorrow.

That takes us up to 10.5 inches total for this rainfall-year to date.

[Jamie p]

After daily severe thunderstorms and hail working over my bananas ,it has finally dried out and is now in the mid nineties with a dew point of 70 !! The Midwest is so much fun weather wise.

Hi every body haven't posted in a long time but came up with a new problem for me. Hope you can help? Live in central Florida along the Atlantic coast. During the month of July we had almost no rain (<.02in). We have 60 Banana trees of different varieties, many of them are in fruit, we water and fertilize to support them. Then in Aug it began to rain we got about 7 inches of rain in the first ten (10) days August. During this time we have had three mature Ice cream trees in full fruit collapse up near their top. The trunk looks rather grey but the leaves are still green.

Is it an over abundance of water? They do not stand in water. The other surrounding trees do not seem to be affected. I know its too late for theses trees. These trees are 25 feet tall and loaded with fruit its a shame. I going let hang ad see what happens
