Dealing With Storm Damaged Trees

Although they’re generally considered as being solid and everlasting, trees can easily become vulnerable in adverse weather like storms & strong winds. Powerful storms and high winds have been seen to wipe out trees and uplift even the healthiest and sturdiest trees from the soil, sending them plunging to the ground, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times soon after a storm have you heard about dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the danger & inconvenience it also will cause costly repairs.

Various trees that have been moderately harmed in the storm might pose a potential threat and might have to be chopped down and disposed of to prevent putting property and people at risk in months or even years ahead.

Other trees may be conserved by being trimmed back, with their most damaged parts being ‘cut off’ just like how an operating surgeon will take off a gangrenous limb. Some other might require to get staked with guy cables or held up with additional supports up until they can re-develop the root structure they need to stand on their own.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

An unqualified amateur is much more liable to overlook a small detail that may well separate one decision from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that indicates that the roots also snapped.

There are generally six forms of storm damage that a tree can not usually sustain:

• Blowovers – these are where the full tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the ground, causing the crown to come down or to angle violently whilst the bottom part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree snap beneath the ground, resulting in the tree pitching or swinging considerably.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to split, but stays up. This occurs most frequently on trees with highly lopsided crowns. The full crown essentially turns into a weather vane in a storm, turning to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a number of additional effects like opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a tree hit by lightening is typically at a considerably increased risk to fall even though it made it through the original storm.
