Dealing With Storm Damaged Trees

Although they’re usually viewed as being really solid and everlasting, trees can certainly come to be defenceless in adverse weather conditions such as storms and strong winds. Violent storms and strong winds have been known to annihilate trees and uplift even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

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

The hardest decision after a windstorm isn’t specifically how to deal with the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is pretty easy. The tougher possibility is if any of the trees still standing are salvageable.

Some trees that have been moderately injured in the storm might pose a potential future hazard and might need to be chopped down and disposed of to avoid placing property and people in danger in many months or years in the future.

Some other trees can be saved by being trimmed back, with their worst damaged sections being ‘severed’ much like how an operating surgeon may amputate a gangrenous leg. Others might need to be staked with guy cables or supported with additional supports up until they can re-develop the root system they have to have to stand on their own.

There are generally 6 sorts of storm damage which a tree can’t normally stand up to:

• Blowovers – these are where the full tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the soil, resulting in the trees crown to come down or angle violently whilst the bottom section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree crack beneath the soil, resulting in the tree pitching or swinging considerably.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays standing. This occurs most frequently on trees with extremely lopsided crowns. The full crown basically ends up being a weather vane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk can not.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment.
