Question Phalaenopsis Brown Spot

Last evening I discovered a brown spot on the new leaf of my Phalaenopsis. I have attached a picture to view.

I live in Florida--Zone 10a--recently we have been experiencing fall like temperatures. Lows in the 50s, Highs in the mid 70s-80, our dew points have been as low as 35-50 degrees...which means it has been relatively dry..."desert" like if you will.

I am just not sure what to do...any ideas?

THANKS

It is on the new leaf...or rather at the base of the new leaf there is some discoloration.

Actually that's just normal coloration for certain Phals. Your plant looks healthy to me.

Oh, that's just normal colouration like what the others said, but if you ever see such again and they are most importantly, pitted, you gotta look out for some pests infesting your plant!
