Managing Storm Damaged Trees
{}Though they’re usually taken as being really solid and timeless, trees may become vulnerable in adverse weather such as storms and strong winds. Violent storms and very high winds have been seen to decimate trees and uplift even the healthiest & sturdiest trees from the soil, sending them crashing to the ground, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.
How many times after a storm have you heard of dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the danger and inconvenience it also may lead to expensive repairs.
The toughest decision following a windstorm isn’t how to deal with the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s more or less easy. The tougher possibility is if any of the trees left standing can be saved.
Some trees that have been in part affected in the storm might pose a future threat and might need to be disassembled and disposed of to prevent placing property and people in danger in months or even years ahead.
Other trees maybe preserved by being pruned back, with their worst injured sections being ‘amputated’ similar to how an operating surgeon might take off a gangrenous limb. Some other may require to get staked with guy ropes or supported with other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they need to have to stand on their own.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage
Each of these types of problem results in a distinct prognosis for the trees’ long term survival, however forming a diagnosis is a job ideally left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more likely to overlook a small detail that may well differentiate one conclusion from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which signifies that the roots also snapped.
There are basically 6 kinds of storm damage which a tree can’t generally endure:
- Blowovers – these are where the entire tree is uprooted.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, causing the trees crown to fall or angle strongly whilst the bottom section continues to be standing normally.
- Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree tear beneath the earth, leading to the tree pitching 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 rotates enough to split, but stays up. This happens most typically on trees with very lopsided crowns. The entire crown effectively transforms into a weathervane in a windstorm, 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, for now. Lightening hits have a several secondary effects like 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 substantially higher danger to fall despite the fact that it got through the initial storm.
