The electric company just came thru our town !! Im crying over the complete mangling if the trees! We have so many live oak , water oaks ,magnolia and pecan as well, lining basically all the streets . Im not an arborist by any stretch of imagination but I can see the danger placed on people's property by awkward limbs left to hang over drive ways, roofs and residential streets. Limbs coming down due to unbalanced stress left on the trunk ,splitting off during rain storms or high winds which is common in our southern coastal area. Not even during a hurricane, just regular weather storms . Just on our street, three home owners and two propertt management companies decided that the remainder of the decimated trees had to be removed. We have city provisions for protection of ancient oak trees. The board couldn't help but decide in favor of the removal due to the risk of likely injury or property damage. Sad !
Oh man, so sorry to hear that, but the struggle is real with these storms down here in the south (I'm in the Houston area myself), especially once they come in with their tree-butchery!
