The six types of Storm Damage to Trees

• Total tree collapse, when the tree is pushed over and completely damaged due to high winds.
• Stem failure occurs at weak spots of the tree. Old wounds of the tree are weaker compared to the other sections, and a storm might lead to stem damage and breakage.
• Crown twist, which means more wind on one side of the crown comprising leaves, twigs, and branches. It produces a twist on the branches and main stem causing them to collapse and split respectively.
• Root failure occurs when the roots of a tree are constrained.
• Branch failure - weakens the point.
• Lightning strikes destroys tree tissues by electrical disruption and causes extensive water loss and root damage.
  The first there are considered catastrophic and immediate, professional treatment is needed. The remaining three cause comparatively less damage and their effect is spread over years.
