Stormy weather conditions are somewhat normal this time of year and can be a problem for those with large trees. Tree hazards such as narrow or weak crotch angles, damaged limbs and excessive end weights pose imminent threats during excessively windy weather. Homeowners should take time to carefully evaluate large trees and eliminate potential hazardous situations. Below are typical situations in many landscapes.

• Trees that are unnaturally leaning from the ground up should be considered hazardous.

• Trees with excessively narrow crotch angles, such as bradford pears, are easily damaged in windy or rainy conditions.
