Maryland summer storms find the weak spots in a tree, and the time to address them is on a calm day, not in the middle of the wind.
A short look tells you a lot. Scan for dead or hanging limbs over the house and driveway, branches rubbing the roof or power lines, and any tree leaning more than it once did. Cracks where large limbs join the trunk deserve a closer look as well.
Handling these before a storm turns a simple trim into an easy job instead of a midnight emergency with a limb through the fence. Proactive pruning and hazard limb removal are some of the most valuable summer work across Frederick County.
A calm-weather check now can save a lot of trouble later.
