Storm Preparation: Prevention is Key
The best emergency response is prevention. Prepare your trees BEFORE storm season:
Pre-Storm Tree Assessment:
- Identify weak or hazardous branches
- Remove dead wood that could break
- Thin dense canopies to reduce wind resistance
- Remove branches hanging over structures
- Trim branches near power lines
Tree Health Maintenance:
- Healthy trees withstand storms better than weak ones
- Regular pruning strengthens structure
- Proper watering improves root strength
- Mulching protects roots from stress
