The red inside the limb can't be good? Expand That red is just the type of tree it is, it's not a super hard wood so they break easily in high winds, terrible firewood. It's a box elder tree, they're all red like that inside. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S/SSE wind tends to have a lower tree failure threshold - it could be related to that. I mean we've had a wet autumn. The ground isn't frozen... the usual suspects, then repeating 35 mph gusts through a region that hasn't really had a lot of synoptic scaled wind this summer and fall. I remember remarking to Dryslot in our conversation a couple weeks ago, that we realliy seemed to have a low wind autumn. Of course, within a days of doing so, we get a couple of wind headlined events - of course. Anyway, the point is ...lack of 'natural pruning' adds to some vulnerability. The other aspect is that when towns go down, the surrounding towns pick up the slack - this can sometimes cause break switches to trip. They need to send out a boom truck with a fiberglass pole, and hapless lineman with big gloves to poke the switch and pray - I've seen them do this ... because I'm the last mother'fugger on my trunk and the pole is right outside my damn door. I've literally, on more times I care to recall ..., had to phone an outage of 1 single household to NGRID and have then send over a truck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
