Mango Trees

Mango trees in Hougang

The Mango trees are bearing fruit at this time of the year

The local Mangoes are green in colour unlike the ones fron the Philippines

The excavators came and cleared the vegetation. The Papaya trees and Jack Fruit all destroyed. I guess that's life

More rain today but I will rather it didn't rain as it was reported that Cyclone nargis had killed at least 15,000 people in Myanmar.

Rain

It rained a bit in the afternoon. I think there was rain due to a cyclone that hit Myanmar yesterday as reported by BBC news.

Weather situation in April

The Straits Times reported on 4 April that on the previous day about 107 mm of rain was dumped between 4.20pm to 6pm. That was 60 percent of the monthly average rainfall in April!!

But towards the later half of April the weather started to get hot and dry. Looks like I have to water the saplings to help them make it thru the dry season.

The Jack fruit tree is another one of my experiment

Weather in March

The Straits times reported on 3 April that last month was the coolest March in nearly two decades. Due to the La Nina effect which brought more rain the temperature fell to 21.8 deg celcius. the rainfall received was double the average with up to 570mm dumped on parts of the island.

I hope this continues in April so that the saplings can grow well.
