Answer
Hi Larry, I do not grow this palm and did some checking and this is what I found, hope it helps... kathy

If your palms are located in a windy area, the leaves could be drying out; moving the plant to a more sheltered area could solve the problem. Roebelenii palms prefer a moist, but not wet soil, and a humid environment.    

It could possibly be a nutritional deficiency,  there are fertilizers made especially for palms and you should be using them as directed, especially in the summer,
