Atlantic hurricane season peaks from August through October, and the South Coast knows the damage a strong storm can do. The best time to storm-proof your trees is before the forecast, not after.
What Makes a Tree a Hazard
Dead or split limbs, leaning trunks, root damage, and overextended branches near your home or power lines are all risks in high wind. A healthy-looking tree can still have hidden weaknesses.
Pre-Storm Steps
Have an arborist inspect large trees, remove deadwood and weak limbs, and consider cabling for valuable trees with structural concerns. Clearing branches away from the house and lines reduces the chance of a costly strike.
