Even though they’re typically seen as being solid and timeless, trees can easily become at risk in adverse weather like strong winds & storms. Violent storms and strong winds have been known to decimate trees and tear even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the soil, sending them crashing to the earth, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage

An unqualified nonprofessional is far more going to fail to notice a small detail that can separate one conclusion from another, such as seeing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which shows that the roots also snapped.

There are generally six forms of storm damage which a tree can not typically stand up to:

• Blowovers – this is where the complete tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the ground, leading to the crown to fall or angle violently whilst the lower section stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree split under the ground, resulting in the tree pitching or swaying considerably.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to splinter, but stays standing. This occurs most commonly on trees with highly disproportionate crowns. The complete crown ultimately turns into a weather vane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind in a way that the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a number of additional 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 considerably increased danger to drop even if it survived the original storm.
