If I were to distill it down it sounds like I would have a couple of concerns -

Cold/Frost
Lower humidity level?
Average Daytime temperature

I think what's working for you is that sunset and sunrise are regular at your latitude.

Give it a shot! That's what I'm doing with nanas in San Jose, California, USA

25-50 kph is normal, and 65-100 kph is about twice a week, Jack.

As you've said, a breeze.

After 100kph electricians usually spend the next week trying to restore power to certain rural parts here.

No mosquitoes...that's what I'm talking about! I wish you lots of success with bananas in your new climate. Please keep us posted on what grows well there.

I agree. Most of them are Italian "experts" from ENEL. Cancel them all.
