Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees

Although they’re generally taken as being really durable and permanent, trees can easily become defenceless in extreme weather such as strong winds & storms. Fierce storms and very high winds have been known to annihilate trees and tear even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them plunging to the ground, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times soon after strong winds have you heard of dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. In addition to the danger and inconvenience it additionally can result in expensive restorations.

The toughest option following a storm isn’t specifically how to remove the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is fairly simple. The more difficult choice is if some of the trees left standing are salvageable.

Some trees that have been partly damaged in the storm can present a potential future hazard and may need to be disassembled and took out to prevent putting property and people in danger in months or years in the future.

Some other trees could be preserved by being trimmed back, with their worst affected parts being ‘amputated’ similar to how an operating surgeon would amputate a gangrenous limb. Others may require to get staked down with guy wires or held up with various other supports up until they can re-develop the root structure they need to stand on their own.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

All of these kinds of problem causes a varied diagnosis for the trees’ potential survival, but forming a diagnosis is a task ideally left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more likely to overlook a small detail that might just separate one verdict from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that indicates that the roots also failed.

There are basically 6 sorts of storm damage that a tree can not generally endure:

• Blowovers – these are where the complete tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the ground, causing the trees crown to fall or sag violently while the lower part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree split beneath the ground, leading to the tree bending or swaying considerably.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to splinter, but stays up. This happens most typically on trees with highly lopsided crowns. The complete crown basically ends up being a weathervane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk can not.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening hits have a many additional effects including 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 much increased risk to drop even though it made it through the original storm.
