Handling Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact they’re typically seen as being durable and everlasting, trees may end up being defenceless in extreme weather like strong winds and storms. Fierce storms and very high winds have been seen to decimate trees and uplift even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the ground, sending them toppling to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times soon after a storm have you heard about dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the inconvenience and danger it additionally may result in costly restorations.

The hardest decision following a windstorm isn’t specifically how to remove the trees that are definitely down, that’s more or less simple. The tougher decision is whether some of the trees left standing are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been in part affected in the storm might present a potential future threat and may have to be disassembled and disposed of to avoid putting people & property at risk in several months or even years ahead.

Other trees could be conserved by being pruned back, with their most damaged parts being ‘severed’ just like how an operating surgeon would amputate a gangrenous leg. Some other might require to be staked down with guy wires or supported with other supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to have to stand on their own.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

Every one of these sorts of problem causes an unique diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, however forming a prognosis is a task ideally entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more going to miss a small detail that may well separate one conclusion from another, like noticing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that reveals that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially 6 kinds of storm damage that a tree can not usually endure:

• Blowovers – this is where the complete tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, resulting in the trees crown to come down or bend violently whilst the lower part stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree snap beneath the soil, leading to the tree bending or swaying significantly.
• Limb 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 standing. This occurs most typically on trees with very lopsided crowns. The complete crown effectively turns into a weather vane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind in a way that the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening strikes have a several secondary effects such as 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 much greater danger to drop even though it endured the initial storm.
