In this Palo Alto article, George Reno from Davey’s Menlo Park office tells homeowners how to prevent weak limbs and falling trees in the Bay Area this winter.
The Bay Area is heading into a weak La Niña winter, which typically brings a drier-than-average season.

Weaker events, marked by milder cooling of Pacific Ocean temperatures, often produce more unpredictable weather patterns..
Regardless of whether we experience a drier or wetter winter this year, now is the time to prepare your trees for rain, saturated soils and wind gusts and to take preventative measures to reduce the risk of weak limbs or destabilized trees failing. With smart preparation, you can help your trees withstand the region’s unpredictable months ahead.
