The limb that looks easiest to move after a storm is often the most dangerous one.
Branches resting against a power line, a trunk that's split but still standing, or debris tangled around a fence can hold hidden tension that lets go without warning. Gulf Coast storms move through fast, and the aftermath can look deceptively manageable from the ground.
If any part of a downed tree is touching a utility line, or a trunk is cracked but hasn't fully come down, the safest move is to stay back and call a professional. Our certified arborists across Angleton, Pearland, and Brazoria County are equipped to assess what's actually safe to approach.
A little patience after a storm goes a long way toward keeping everyone safe until help arrives.
