The Trees/Plants are getting too large


The Trees/Plants are getting too large

My back yard is shrinking or the plants/trees are getting too large. LOL! Photo taken Nov. 25, 2013. The plants are: Plumeria 'Plastic Pink'; Carica papaya 'Dwarf Thai' - Dwarf Thai Papaya (which is giant and not so dwarf here in San Diego); Markhamia lutea.

Thanks! :>)

It's been very warm to hot here; however, a big change in the weather (especially for San Diego) is coming this weekend. Much cooler than normal weather will be coming by this weekend the highs will only be around 62ºF (17ºC). We'll have to say goodbye to 80ºF (27ºC) weather for about 4 or 5 days. :>(

Will you look at the colour of that sky, having frosts here now, still we have been very lucky so far.......fingers crossed that it may continue.....

We're lucky that about 95% of the time the sky is clear and warm. Today it's semi-cloudy and cool...we had a few little showers very early this morning around 4 a.m.

Northern California is experiencing unusually cold weather and a freeze. It's pretty early in the year for such cold weather there. Luckily, I don't get freezing temps (or even near freezing temps) where I live. The Weather Almanac predicted that most of the U.S. is suppose to have a colder than normal winter. I don't think it'll affect us here in San Diego, though; however, we'll have to wait and see.

We just experienced much cooler than normal weather for 5 days. Yesterday the temps started getting back to normal as the high temp was 72ºF (22ºC). By this weekend and all next week, temps are going to be warm to almost hot at 82ºF (28ºC).

It's been cold here at night but it really warms up during the day, thanks to the clear sky and hot sun. But at night...........bbbrrrrr. Oh,,,,and really damp, everything is wet in the morning.

The temps went up to 90ºF (32ºC) here last week...then it cooled down for a few days now it's warm again...and by Christmas 80ºF (27ºC) weather. It's not going to feel very Christmasy! It's not too unusual to have a hot Christmas, though.
