Gents. Lady. Am I turning paranoid or is my coco tree sick with lethal yellowing. Please note it is the dry season here but I water regularly. Thanks for the advice.

I am not aware LY affects palms outside of the Caribbean and US. Did you just plant it? Coconuts are sun lovers and I wouldn't expect sunburn unless one had grown exclusively in shade, then abruptly exposed to full sun. Looks more like drought stress to me. Coconuts have some drought tolerance but are not drought proof. Throwing a few gallons of water on it every few days may not be enough. Try a long, slow soaking or a drip line.
