More Windstorm--December 4, 2003
Windstorm Introduction         Red Oak, Japanese Red Pine, and Honey Locust
 
  Pines
      usually lose a top or break along the trunk, but three of our
      four destroyed shore pines were uprooted by the wind. This one
      created a twenty-four inch hole with eighteen inches of water
      in it. The roots also lifted several large rhododendrons into
      the air.

      


      

      
   Doreen stands
      in the triple top of a large Shore Pine that tangled with a Beauty
      of Littleworth and won. Another took down a Sourwood tree with
      it.

      
We also lost a Pinion Pine
      and two Japanese Red Pines. In addition, a Scotch Pine, a Japanese
      Black Pine, a Lodgepole Pine, and an Austrian Pine all tipped
      over, but I was able to right them with cables.
