Most people think of spring as storm season, but Alabama also experiences severe weather from November to December. Central Alabama has seen fall tornadoes and strong storms over the years. The calm weather in October is a great time to prepare.
Check for overhanging limbs, leaning trees, or any that have dropped large branches recently. Saturated winter soil and strong winds can topple trees in Birmingham's red clay.
This is a chance to make a plan while the weather is quiet. An ISA Certified Arborist can advise on what needs immediate attention, what can wait, and what's fine. If a storm hits, ACE is always ready for emergency response.
Where were you during the last big fall storm in Central Alabama? Did your trees come through okay? 🌳💨
