There are essentially six types of storm damage that a tree can’t generally endure:

• Blowovers – this is where the complete tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, resulting in the trees crown to fall or to bend strongly while the lower section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree split below the ground, leading to the tree leaning or swaying significantly.
• Limb Failures – is where several limbs of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to split, but stays up. This takes place most often on trees with very unbalanced crowns. The complete crown basically transforms into a weather vane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind in a way that the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a several additional 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 fall even though it got through the initial storm.
