Dealing With Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact they are usually taken as being really strong and eternal, trees can certainly come to be vulnerable in adverse weather such as strong winds and storms. Powerful storms and extreme winds have been known to wipe out trees and uplift even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

How many times after strong winds have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Apart from the inconvenience & danger it also can cause expensive restorations.

The toughest option after a windstorm is not how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that’s more or less straightforward. The tougher choice is whether some of the trees remaining standing are salvageable.

Various trees that have been partly injured in the storm can present a future hazard and may well have to be disassembled and disposed of to avoid putting property & people in danger in many months or even years to come.

Some other trees could be preserved by being pruned back, with their worst injured sections being ‘amputated’ exactly like how a surgeon would take off a gangrenous limb. Others will need to get staked down with guy cables or held up with additional supports up until they can re-develop the root system they need to stand on their own.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage

Every one of these sorts of damage leads to an unique prognosis for the trees’ future survival, but making a prognosis is a job best entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more going to disregard a small detail that could differentiate one verdict from another, such as finding the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that shows that the roots also snapped.

There are basically six sorts of storm damage that a tree can not usually sustain:

• Blowovers – this is where the full tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, resulting in the trees crown to come down or bend strongly while the lower section continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree snap underneath the soil, resulting in the tree leaning or swinging noticeably.
• Branch Failures – is where one or more branches 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 very disproportionate crowns. The full crown basically turns into a weather vane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind in a way that 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 like massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a substantially higher risk to drop even though it got through the initial storm.
