Managing Storm Damaged Trees

Though they’re typically seen as being really sturdy and everlasting, trees can end up being vulnerable in extreme weather like strong winds & storms. Violent storms and very high winds have been known to annihilate trees and rip even the healthiest & sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them crashing to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the danger & inconvenience it also may lead to expensive repairs.

The toughest option following a storm is not how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s more or less simple. The more challenging decision is whether any of the trees remaining standing can be saved.

Some trees that have been in part harmed in the storm can pose a potential threat and might have to be chopped down and disposed of to avoid placing people and property in danger in months or even years to come.

• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the earth, leading to the trees crown to come down or to angle strongly while the bottom part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree snap underneath the earth, leading to the tree bending or swaying considerably.
• Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays standing. This takes place most often on trees with highly unbalanced crowns. The complete crown ultimately turns into a weather vane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a several secondary effects like massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a tree hit by lightening is always at a very much increased risk to fall despite the fact that it got through the original storm.
