In this Mountain View Voice article, George Reno from Davey's Menlo Park office shares tips to prepare trees for cooler, winter weather.
It’s too early to tell if the Bay Area will experience a wetter- or drier-than-average winter. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s winter outlook predicts that a slowly developing La Nina will influence the winter months bringing wetter weather to the northern United States and drier weather to the south. The Bay Area, however, could go either way, according to the administration’s outlook, which shows an equal chance of the area experiencing more rain than usual or drier conditions than usual. 
Either way, December typically signals the start of our rainy season and cooler temperatures. Preparing your trees for winter is critical for their health and will set the stage for a vibrant spring landscape.
