Summer storms move through Frederick County fast this time of year.
The real danger isn't always the wind alone, it's what happens when heavy rain saturates the ground first and a gust follows right after. Roots lose their grip in soft, waterlogged soil faster than most people expect.
Trees that have looked stable for years can become a real risk after a few days of soaked ground, especially ones with any existing lean or a canopy heavier than the root system can support.
It's worth a second look at any tree close to your house, driveway, or power lines after a wet stretch this summer.
