Default Banana leaves turning transparent patches after rain

Hi everyone, I’m growing a few banana plants in a humid tropical climate, and recently I’ve noticed something unusual. After heavy rain, some of the leaves start developing small transparent or water-soaked patches that later turn brown and dry out. It doesn’t look like the typical leaf spot diseases I’ve seen before.

I water regularly but try not to overwater, and the soil drains fairly well. The issue seems to appear mainly after several days of continuous rain. Could this be a fungal or bacterial problem, or maybe some kind of nutrient imbalance triggered by excess moisture?
Has anyone experienced similar symptoms, and what would be the best way to treat or prevent it?
