Storms, Trees, and Safety | Winston–Salem News

Storms are swinging into town, and folks in the Piedmont Triad are scrambling to check their trees—because when wind and rain hit, those limbs can become dangerous liabilities. Tree pros are flooded with calls, warning that even trees that survived past storms are now weakened by accumulated damage, vines, and leaning branches. Don’t try DIY tree work—it’s risky, dangerous, and could wreck your home or injure you. Experts urge homeowners to stay proactive: inspect trees near houses, power lines, and fences, and get a pro assessment before, during, and after storms. Safety isn’t optional—it’s the smart move before disaster strikes. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
