Handling Storm Damaged Trees

Although they’re generally viewed as being really sturdy and permanent, trees can come to be vulnerable in adverse weather conditions like strong winds & storms. Powerful storms and very high winds have been seen to wipe out trees and tear even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the soil, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times shortly after strong winds have you heard about storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the danger & inconvenience it also may result in costly repair work.

The most difficult decision following a storm isn’t how to remove the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is pretty easy. The tougher choice is if any of the trees remaining upright are salvageable.

Various trees that have been moderately affected in the storm may well pose a potential future hazard and may well have to be disassembled and disposed of to prevent placing people & property at risk in months or even years to come.

Some other trees could be saved by being trimmed back, with their most affected sections being ‘amputated’ much like how a surgeon might amputate a gangrenous leg. Some other may require to be staked with guy wires or supported with various other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to have to stand on their own.

Different Kinds Of Storm Damage

All of these kinds of damage results in a different prognosis for the trees’ potential survival, but making a diagnosis is a task ideally left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more going to miss a small detail that can separate one decision from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which reveals that the roots also snapped.

There are basically 6 sorts of storm damage which a tree can not usually endure:

• Blowovers – this is where the whole tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, resulting in the trees crown to come down or bend strongly while the bottom part stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree break underneath the earth, resulting in the tree bending or swinging dramatically.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to splinter, but stays up. This happens most typically on trees with very unbalanced crowns. The whole crown essentially transforms into a weathervane in a storm, turning 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 up, at the moment. Lightening hits have a several secondary effects including opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a much higher danger to drop even though it survived the original storm.
