Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact they’re generally viewed as being strong and timeless, trees can certainly come to be defenceless in adverse weather conditions such as strong winds and storms.

Various trees that have been in part injured in the storm might pose a future hazard and may need to be cut down and removed to prevent placing property & people at risk in many months or years in the future.

Other trees may be conserved by being trimmed back, with their most damaged parts being ‘cut off’ similar to how a surgeon would remove a gangrenous limb. Others might require to get staked with guy ropes or held up with other supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they have to have to stand on their own.

Different Kinds Of Storm Damage

There are generally six kinds of storm damage that a tree can not typically endure:

  • Blowovers – this is where the whole tree falls down.
  • Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, making the trees crown to come down or angle strongly whilst the bottom section continues to be standing normally.
  • Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree tear under the soil, leading to the tree bending or swaying considerably.
  • Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree detach.
  • Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays standing. This occurs most frequently on trees with extremely disproportionate crowns. The whole crown basically becomes 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 standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a many secondary effects such as opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a tree hit by lightening is typically at a substantially greater danger to drop despite the fact that it made it through the original storm.
