Even though they are often viewed as being really solid and everlasting, trees can easily end up being defenceless in adverse weather conditions such as storms and strong winds.

How many times following strong winds have you heard about dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. In addition to the danger & inconvenience it additionally may result in expensive renovations.

The toughest option following a windstorm is not how to dispose of the trees that are definitely down, that is pretty simple. The harder decision is whether or not any of the trees still standing are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been in part harmed in the windstorm may well pose a future hazard and might need to be chopped down and took out to prevent putting property and people in danger in several months or even years to come.

Other trees could be preserved by being pruned back, with their most damaged sections being ‘cut off’ much like how an operating surgeon might remove a gangrenous limb. Some other might need to get staked down with guy wires or held up with various other supports up until they can re-develop the root system they need to have to stand on their own.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

All of these kinds of problem leads to an unique diagnosis for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a prognosis is a task ideally left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more liable to overlook a small detail that could differentiate one decision from another, like noticing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean which signifies that the roots also failed.

There are essentially six kinds of storm damage which a tree can’t normally sustain:

• Blowovers – this is where the full tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the soil, resulting in the crown to come down or bend strongly even though the lower section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree tear beneath the soil, leading to the tree bending or swaying dramatically.
• Branch Failures – is where several limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates enough to splinter, but stays up. This happens most often on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The full crown ultimately ends up being a weathervane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk can not.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a many additional effects including opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is always at a very much increased danger to drop even though it endured the initial windstorm.
