Managing Trees Damaged In A Storm

Though they’re generally considered as being really strong and permanent, trees can certainly come to be at risk in adverse weather such as strong winds & storms. Intense storms and extreme winds have been seen to wipe out trees and tear even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

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

Some trees that have been in part harmed in the windstorm may well pose a possible future hazard and might need to be disassembled and disposed of to avoid placing property and people in danger in months or years to come.

Other trees can be preserved by being pruned back, with their most affected parts being ‘cut off’ exactly like how a surgeon will amputate a gangrenous limb.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

Each of these sorts of damage creates a different diagnosis for the trees’ long term survival, however forming a prognosis is a task best entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more going to fail to notice a small detail that might just differentiate one conclusion from another, such as finding the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which suggests that the roots also snapped.

There are generally six forms of storm damage which a tree can’t usually endure:

• Blowovers – these are where the whole tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the soil, leading to the crown to come down or to bend strongly even though the lower section continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree snap underneath the soil, leading to the tree bending or swinging dramatically.
• Branch Failures – is where several limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to splinter, but stays up. This happens most often on trees with highly lopsided crowns. The whole crown basically ends up being a weathervane in a storm, turning to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a lot of secondary effects like 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 increased risk to drop even if it survived the original windstorm.
